1h—RECOVERED ERROR

1h—RECOVERED ERROR

2h—NOT READY NOTE: Reporting of recovered errors defaults to OFF.

Action: In all cases, action depends on the device class and operating system.

Code

Comments

37 00

Rounded parameter

The drive needs to round off the value of a parameter

 

 

sent by MODE SELECT because it cannot store it to the

 

 

degree of accuracy sent by the command.

 

 

 

5D 00

Failure prediction threshold

Failure Prediction thresholds have been exceeded

 

exceeded

indicating that TapeAlert flags have been activated.

 

Action:

 

 

Retrieve the TapeAlert log page to find out which flag

 

 

has been activated and advise the user accordingly.

 

 

 

5D FF

Failure prediction threshold

The Informational Exceptions Mode page has been sent

 

exceeded (false)

with the Test field set to 1 and the DExcpt field to 0,

 

 

causing the drive to generate a false informational

 

 

exception condition (a false device failure).

 

Action:

Since the function of the Test field is simply to test that an

 

 

informational exception condition will produce a CHECK

 

 

CONDITION and that the exception will be reported to

 

 

the TapeAlert log, no action is necessary.

2h—NOT READY

Code

Meaning

Comments

04 00

LUN not ready, no cause

This is set if an unload is occurring with immediate report

 

to report

on, or initiated through the front panel, or a different host

 

 

initiated the command. It is present for the duration of

 

 

the unload or eject, after which the additional sense

 

 

changes to 3A 00h (medium not present) or 0402h

 

 

(logical unit not ready, initializing command required).

 

Action:

1.

Issue a message to the console stating that the tape is

 

 

 

currently being unloaded from the drive.

 

 

2.

Poll the drive until the additional sense changes to

 

 

 

3A 00h or 04 02h.

 

 

3.

Instruct the user what to do, based on the application

 

 

 

and the previous sequence of commands.

 

 

4.

Depending on the application, the software may

 

 

 

terminate the current I/O.
