Table 5-5. TapeAlert Flags and Descriptions (continued)
TapeAlert Flags Supported by the Tape Drive
30 1Eh Hardware A Set when a hardware failure
occurs that requires that you
reset the tape drive to
recover.
If resetting the drive does not
recover the error, use the
error code from the
single-character display,
library user interface, or SCSI
drive sense data. See
“Descriptions and Corrective
Actions” on page 5-10.
31 1Fh Hardware B Set when the tape drive fails
its internal self tests.
Use the error code on the
single-character display,
library user interface, or SCSI
drive sense data. See
“Descriptions and Corrective
Actions” on page 5-10.
32 20h Interface Set when the tape drive
detects a problem with the
SCSI or LDI (RS-422)
interface.
Locate error code 8 or 9 in
“Descriptions and Corrective
Actions” on page 5-10.
33 21h Eject media Set when a failure occurs that
requires you to unload the
cartridge from the drive.
Unload and reload the tape
cartridge.
34 22h Download fail Set when a field microcode
replacement (FMR) image is
unsuccessfully downloaded
to the tape drive via the SAS
interface.
Ensure that it is the correct
image. Download the FMR
image again.
36 24h Drive temperature Set when the drive's
temperature sensor indicates
that the drive's temperature
is exceeding the
recommended temperature of
the system (see Chapter 6,
“Specifications,” on page
6-1).
See error code 1 in
“Descriptions and Corrective
Actions” on page 5-10.
37 25h Drive voltage Set when the drive detects
that the externally supplied
voltages are either
approaching the specified
voltage limits or are outside
the voltage limits (see
Chapter 6, “Specifications,”
on page 6-1).
See error code 2 in
“Descriptions and Corrective
Actions” on page 5-10.
39 27h Diagnostics required Set when the drive detects a
failure that requires
diagnostics to isolate the
problem.
See error code 6 in
“Descriptions and Corrective
Actions” on page 5-10.
51 33h Tape directory invalid
at unload
Set when the tape directory
on the tape cartridge that
was previously unloaded is
corrupted. The file-search
performance is degraded.
Rebuild the tape directory by
reading all the data.
