It depends. Do you use VOLSTAT(*DLT or *KEEP)? If you're using *DLT and
you're getting that many errors on a weekly basis - nuke it. But if you
use one tape (foolish) every night for the last 15 years and you're using
*KEEP, your opinion may differ.

I'm also guessing, since you're running V5R1, that your tape drive isn't
exactly 'leading edge'. IOW, used tapes for that should be a dime a dozen
(figuratively). Just replace them.
