help! - ontape restores failing

[WiccaChic]

Ugh. Trying to restore an ontape backup and getting the following error.
---start error info
Read/Write End Of Medium enabled: blocks = 99542
Please mount tape 2 on /dev/rmt0 and press Return to continue ...
<we mount the tape and press enter>

I have determined that its not a bad tape set and the tapes are in the correct order. I have also tried another set of tapes just in case! Relevant onconfig settings:

TAPEDEV /dev/rmt0
TAPEBLK 256 # Tape block size (Kbytes)
TAPESIZE 0 # should use entire tape

have never used:
TAPESIZE 0

it might seem obvious, but you could try changing it to something like

TAPESIZE 4000000 #(i.e. 4gb)

which is what we used to get over a similar problem...
