TS2900 Tape Autoloader Setup, Operator, and Service Guide
Description
Set when a drive hardware error
prevents the tape cartridge from being
unloaded from the tape drive, or when
the tape cartridge is stuck in the drive.
Set when the drive determines that the
data on the tape is suspect from a
WORM point of view.
Set when the drive rejects a write
operation because the rules for allowing
WORM writes have not been met. Data
can only be appended to WORM media.
Overwrites to WORM media are not
allowed.
Action Required
1. Unload the cartridge from the drive
using the Operator Panel or the Web
User Interface.
2. Try a power cycle of the entire library.
This causes the drive to reset and
attempt to rewind and unload when
power is restored. If the cartridge
unloads, remove it from the library
and inspect it. If damaged, discard it.
3. Try to unload the cartridge from the
drive again using the Operator Panel
or the Web User Interface.
4. If the cartridge will still not unload
from the drive, see "Contacting IBM
Technical Support" on page 7-1.
1. Copy the data to another WORM tape
cartridge.
2. Discard the old WORM tape.
Append the information on a WORM
tape cartridge or write the data to a
non-WORM cartridge.
