7 FAIL Background tests run by the Host Adapter detected that the tape could not be
accessed at some time previous to executing the read-and-clear test. This
error may have been caused by removing and reinserting the tape cartridg e.
The read-and-clear test or reset test must be run at least once before this error
is cleared.
1. Try test tape again to see if the error has cleared.
2. Verify that the Tape Cartridge is present.
3. If the test continues to fail, replace the Tape circuit pack.
11 FAIL Backg round tests run by the Host Adapter detected that the Tape drive was
reset at some time previous to executing the read-and-clear test. This error
may have been caused by removing and reinserting the tape cartridg e. The
read-and-clear test or reset test must be run at least once before this error is
cleared.
1. Try test tape again to see if the error has cleared.
2. If the test continues to fail, replace the Tape circuit pack.
5504 FAIL A tape block has been reassigned to a different location on the tape as a result
of a medium error. This is referred to as a "grown defect." Tape performance
will be affected since the tape drive must search ahead to read or write this
block and then return to where it left off. Continued testing will not correct the
problem. The tape should be replaced as soon as practic able.
1. Run the STO-DATA tests to verify that the boot images, translations,
announcements, etc., are valid.
2. If errors are detected, run backup disk full to restore good copies to the
tape.
3. If the STO-DATA tests continue to fail, replace the tape.
5512 FAIL Ninety per cent of the manufacturer’s recommended limit for tape accesses
has been exceeded. Continued testing will not correct the problem and the
tape will need to be replaced as soon as practic able.
