MRIE Method for Reporting Informational Exceptions. The tape drive uses
the contents of this field to report information about exception
conditions. Three methods are available:
Value Method
00h No reporting of Informational Exception Conditions. The
device server does not report information exception
conditions.
03h Conditionally Generate Recovered Error. The device
server reports informational exception conditions, if such
reports of recovered errors is allowed, by returning
CHECK CONDITION status on the next SCSI command
(except INQUIRY and REQUEST SENSE commands)
following detection of the condition. The Sense Key is set
to RECOVERED ERROR with an additional sense code
of 5D 00 (TapeAlert Event). The SCSI command with
CHECK CONDITION completes without error prior to the
report of any exception condition, and does not need to
be repeated.
06h Only Report Informational Exception Condition on
Request. The device server preserves information
exception data. To access the data, a poll can be taken
by issuing an unsolicited REQUEST SENSE command.
The Sense Key is set to NO SENSE with an additional
sense code of 5D 00 (TapeAlert Event).
The additional sense code of 5D 00 for values 03h and 06h signals
that a TapeAlert event has occurred. Information about the event is
stored in the TapeAlert Log Page. The setting of MRIE does not
impact logging of events in the TapeAlert Log Page.
