Tape initialization during backup

[Pete Helgren <pete@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This is one of those "I never really thought about it before" kind of 
questions:

If you initialize a tape with specific parameters and begin a backup and 
that backup requires a second tape that you have *not* initialized, when 
you receive the error message about the tape not being initialized (or 
whatever the message is) and reply as 'INZ', what parameters are used to 
initialize the tape since you are not prompted for parameters? (which 
would be a nice option, BTW)

I haven't cataloged a tape that was initialized in that way so I 
wondered what parameters would be used.  Defaults ?
