Sounds like the job is filling up the tape. 
 
What kind of drive do you have? What kind of media?
 
How much data has been backed up when the Alert is displayed?  (from the job monitor)

Again, you will probably NEVER see 2:1 compression
 
277GB on a 200 GB native tape is approx 1.385:1, so you are actually getting pretty good compression
 
Could be that the tape was right on the edge of filling up before and the backup has grown by 10-15 MB, and is now too large.
