When does a tape "close"? Is it at the end of each backup regardless of the type of backup?
Correct
Hmm
Do all your jobs use the same media set? this is a requirement for Appending in BackupExec. If it can't find an appendable tape (one in the same media set that is within the APP) it will ask for an Overwriteable tape
Does it ask for Overwriteable at the beginning of the job, or does the job run for a bit, then ask? If the latter, then I'd say that the tape is filling up, regardless of how much data actually gets written to it
