Number of Blocks Set to 0, indicating that all of the remaining logical blocks on the tape have the
medium characteristics specified by the block descriptor.
Block Length Specifies the length in bytes of each logical block transferred.
A block length of 0 indicates that the length is variable, as specified in the I/O
command. Any other value indicates the number of bytes per block that are used for
READ, WRITE, and VERIFY type commands that specify a fixed bit of 1 (Fixed Block
Mode).
