When you append to a tape, it will write to the end of the tape and then overwrite the next tape. If you don't have an overwriteable tape, when the data spill over, then you will get an alert asking you to put in an overwriteable tape.
There is no automatic facility in BE to check whether the backup data will fit on what space remains on the tape and if it does not, overwrite that tape. You got to do this manually i.e, erase the tape before the next job starts if there is insufficient space on tape.
