STORE and TurboSTORE/iX Manual

Labeled Tapes 

The labeled tape format is similar to the unlabeled tape format except
the tape marks are not used so that the storeset is written as one large
file.  The tape marks are replaced by data marks, which are special
record headers defined to represent tape marks.  On DDS drives, save set
marks are also written in place of tape marks.  This results in a
volumeset requiring labeling only at the beginning and ending of each
member volume.

Figure C-2  illustrates the labeled tape format.
