Even though TSM does not keep this info, I can get a report of "mount history" from my IBM 3584 web utility. This shows the history of the tape. Before upgrading to LTO4, I used LTO2 tapes for over 5 years with very few issues. They have outlasted the drive technology.
Scott Bellew TSM does not keep information on a tape beyond its current use. Not sure about LTO, but they are similar to 3590 which we run to the first write error. In general this takes years, but I have no idea how many mounts.
