Hello Christian,
If btape is saying that the volume is prelabeled, it means that it has a Bacula label that is written *before* any data is put on the tape. This means that either the tape was never written, or someone (not Bacula) wrote an end of file mark at the beginning of the tape, then the next time it was mounted by Bacula (or some sys admin) Bacula recognized it as a "blank" tape and wrote a prelabel. It is very difficult to recover from a tape being overwritten, but it is possible and rather complicated. It involves first scanning the tape to see if there is any real data past the prelabel records, and if so, copying the good data to another tape.
