I quote from the System Messages and Recovery Procedures reference:

	In a save operation with the /NOREWIND qualifier, the specified
	volume contained a multivolume file that was continued on another
	volume, and therefore a file cannot be appended to the volume.

Try using the /REWIND qualifier on the BACKUP command line (or using another
volume).
