There's a lot of stuff to sanitize in those files before posting here, but
here are most likely the relevant lines from the taper debug file:
Thu Apr 14 22:15:16 2016: thd-0x21e5050: taper: Building type SPLIT_FILE
header of 32768-32768 bytes with name='some_client' disk='/path/to/data'

Thu Apr 14 22:15:16 2016: thd-0x21e5050: taper: warning: Got EIO on
/dev/st0, assuming end of tape
Thu Apr 14 22:15:16 2016: thd-0x21e5050: taper: Device tape:/dev/st0 error

Thu Apr 14 22:15:16 2016: thd-0x21e5050: taper: Device tape:/dev/st0
setting status flag(s): DEVICE_STATUS_VOLUME_ERROR
Thu Apr 14 22:15:27 2016: thd-0xf98c00: taper: Will request retry of failed
split part.
Thu Apr 14 22:15:27 2016: thd-0xf98c00: taper: tape campus-NGH873L4 kb 0 fm
1 [OK]
So this is a new Quantum Superloader, I can't imagine the heads are dirty
already.
Here is the tapetype as suggested by amtapetype:
define tapetype LTO-4 {
comment "Created by amtapetype; compression enabled"
length 794405408 kbytes
filemark 1385 kbytes
speed 77291 kps
blocksize 32 kbytes
}
The size of this backup job does not exceed 400GB at its largest size.
Kind regards,
Chris
-----------------------
These dumps were to tape campus-NGH873L4.
Not using all tapes because 1 tapes filled; runtapes=1 does not allow
additional tapes.
There are 112130560k of dumps left in the holding disk.
They will be flushed on the next run.

I'm trying to figure out how a LTO4 tape was filled up by 32k of data....
