media manager found wrong tape in drive(93)

How tape backup server went down and we had to build a new one. I was able to install Netbackup V6 and detect the HP Ultium 960 Autoloader no problem. I added the tape HCART3 manually and the media ID that were on the labels, but I am having a problem with just one tape. Tape media ID OT0001 which is in slot 1. I created the exact same way I did all other, but this one when I try to read it by doing an erase I get this problem:
9/3/2010 11:43:20 AM - begin Erase
9/3/2010 11:43:20 AM - started process bplabel (7948)
9/3/2010 11:43:28 AM - mounting OT0001
9/3/2010 11:44:28 AM - mounted; mount time: 00:01:00
9/3/2010 11:44:33 AM - expected media OT0001; found NetBackup media
9/3/2010 11:44:33 AM - end Erase; elapsed time: 00:01:13
media manager found wrong tape in drive(93)

Would anyone know how I can get this tape working.

Deselect verify media button.


***EDIT***
However, was this media used elsewhere?

Albeit this indicates differently:
9/3/2010 11:44:33 AM - expected media OT0001; found NetBackup media

***EDIT #2***
Was it maybe utilised as a cold catalog tape in its previous life?
