Many thanks for the data point! When we use Bacula (not just btape) with larger block sizes (512 KB), our backups abort when bacula fails to read the tape's header block. I notice you have IBM drives. Maybe the block size limitation (for some reason or other) shows just up on HP drives? Our prior IBM LTO-4 drives also worked quite nicely with larger blocks.
