When I worked at an organization that backed up directly to tape, we ran into issues where a backup piece would span more than one tape (maybe it started towards the end of one). In that case, the catalog was only aware of the first tape ID. Our SA had to run some NetBackup script to get the whole tape list and ensure it was available.
