So... if Bacula shows _uncompressed_ 603,938,958,336 bytes (562 GB, aprox.) and 
the tape is marked as full ... it should be correct to assume, regarding the 
information provided by `tapeinfo`, that the drive is compressing data. So the 
tape should have enough free space. 

I am looking for a way to find out if data is being compressed, in order to 
take advantage of the tape's full capacity. 
OTOH, considering I am trying to check if hardware compression is actually 
being performed, perhaps it's beyond of the scope of this list.
