WORM—overwrite attempted

A write operation could not be executed because an

 

 

overwrite has been attempted on a WORM cartridge. This

 

 

may be because an overwrite backup was specified

 

 

instead of an appended backup.

 

Action:

1.

Terminate the I/O and return the appropriate error.

 

 

2.

Send a message to the console indicating that an

 

 

 

attempt has been made to overwrite on a WORM

 

 

 

cartridge.

 

 

3.

Prompt the user to either use a new cartridge or change

 

 

 

the operation to an appended backup.

 

 

4.

Log the incident in the system log.

WORM—integrity check

An attempt has been made to write to a WORM cartridge

 

failed

when the drive has detected inconsistencies while checking

 

 

its integrity.

 

Action:

1.

Terminate the I/O and return the appropriate error.

 

 

2.

Send a message to the console indicating that the drive

 

 

 

has detected an inconsistency with the WORM

 

 

 

cartridge that indicates that it may have been tampered

 

 

 

with.

 

 

3.

Advise the user that the tape may have been tampered

 

 

 

with and they should use a different cartridge.

 

 

4.

Log the incident in the system log for audit purposes.

Security error

Generic security (encryption/decryption) error. For

 

 

example, the Decryption mode is set to RAW and the drive

 

 

has been asked to read, but the hardware does not allow

 

 

this Decryption mode on the current block.

 

 

 

74 01

Unable to decrypt data

The drive encountered encrypted data while reading, but

 

 

decryption mode is not enabled.

 

Action:

Send a SECURITY PROTOCOL OUT command with

 

 

Decryption Mode set to Decrypt or Mixed, and the Key

 

 

field specifying the correct decryption key.

 

 

 

74 02

Unencrypted data

The decryption mode is enabled but the drive encountered

 

encountered while decrypting

non-encrypted data while reading.

 

Action:

Send a SECURITY PROTOCOL OUT command with

 

 

Decryption Mode set to Disable; alternatively with

 

 

Decryption Mode set to Mixed and the Key field specifying

 

 

the correct decryption key.
