And now it get's really weird: this time, the tape was exchanged without any noticable problems. This makes me wonder if the problem is maybe caused by the LTO4 drive itself. But what I didn't mention so far: during my various trial runs around this problem, I also replaced the LTO4 drive with another one. (AFAIR both of them were the same Seagate model, though...)
