I am surprised that no one has yet recommended the TAPEMAP program in file 299 (or 804 for the Jump-enhanced version) on the CBT site. This will give you much, much more information or each file on a tape volume than a simple IEBGENER of the first label file.
You will still have the problem of geenrating the TAPEMAP JCL for each volume. Not having used the latest TAPEMAP version myself, I don't know if it might or might not have facilities to analyze multiple volumes with simpler JCL, but it is certainly worth your time to investigate.
