Intervention-Required Condition
Message
A VTS has a CHECK-1 (xxxx) failure. (VTS z).
Probable Cause
An error was detected in VTS z that cannot be recovered.
The error could be a result of hardware or internal
software problems. The VTS controller restarts itself
automatically. Any host jobs using virtual volumes and
devices are aborted, and any data that has not been
written to the tape volume cache is lost.
Note: The error code is not useful to the operator;
however, the service representative can use the error
code to help determine the cause of the failure.
Message
A partial logical volume (xxxxxx) was read.
Probable Cause
Some of a volume's data could not be recalled from
stacked volumes. The logical mount will succeed, but not
all of the data will be present.
Message
Logical volume xxxxxx was not fully recovered from
damaged stacked volume yyyyyy. (VTS z)
Probable Cause
During the attempted movement of logical volume
xxxxxx from a damaged stacked volume that is in
read-only status, a permanent read error was
encountered. The error was not recoverable. The data
associated with the logical volume was not recovered
and was not moved to another stacked volume.
Message
The Tape Volume Cache is degraded (xxxx). (VTS z)
Probable Cause
A disk drive in one of the tape volume cache storage
capacity features of VTS z has failed. Operations with the
VTS continue, but performance degradation may be
experienced. Service is required.
Note: The error code is not useful to the operator;
however, the service representative can use the error
code to help determine the cause of the failure.
Resolution Actions
1. Record the error code and call your service
