relative to the beginning and end-of-volume. If the device is rewinding, the tape-position indicator illustrates the beginning and end-of-tape. Logically shortened tape is displayed normally, but the rate of change is faster than normal length tapes.

Dump Icon

The status area of the operator panel displays the dump icon, (see Figure 3 on page 9).

The dump icon appears when a trace is available and remains on the screen to indicate that the 3590 stores the trace data. The icon remains on the screen until the 3590 power is turned off, a dump is read over a SCSI port, or the dump is written to a tape.

Attention: The dump is lost if you power off the drive.

Clean Icon

The status area of the operator panel displays a clean icon. (See Figure 3 on page 9.)

When cartridge cleaning is required, the clean icon appears. It displays in the same position as the dump icon, and the dump icon overlays it until the CLEAN message displays. This icon alerts the operator that a cleaning operation is requested.
