For the record, my server is 3.5.1.

OK, it's good to know that at some point it's worked for someone.  I was
using "flush-threshold-scheduled 70" and "flush-threshold-dumped 90" but
it would always flush if there was data to flush even if it only filled
a small portion of the tape.  This led to a two-day cycle:

Day 1: Nothing to flush, dump to the holding disk.
Day 2: Flush data from yesterday and write today's dumps to tape,
       filling about 40% of a tape.  Given the thresholds, it should not
       have written anything for one or two more days.
repeat

I've upped those limits to match yours so we'll see what happens after a
few days.
