I would begin with the activity log... Search for strings like "I/O" or "sense", or "label" and then zero in on any errors you see that may indicate why the tapes are being set to private. Were they labelled when you put them in? A lot of us don't trust the pre-labelled tapes and always use TSM's label libv command when putting new tapes in the library.
