I've seen this sort of issue if the addressablity of the drive is wrong, e.g. logical drive 1 has physical drive 2 address. So library mounts tape in drive 1 but instance tries to read label in drive 2 and fails, marks the tape as unavailable and then works its way through all the scratch tapes. There are messages in actlog when this happens.
I realize these are worm carts, but one way to check is to attempt a DB Backup to the devclass.
