Time stamp for CE Error Log

A time stamp accompanies each error log entry. The time stamp can be displayed in either relative time,
or real time if available. Relative time is associated with the approximate number of power-on hours for
the drive canister. Real-time clock input can be provided to the drive by the host application, the library,
an IBM device driver, or the Fibre Channel switch.
When the drive canister is replaced, the relative time stamp is reset to ddddd=00000. A clock counter is
started with power ON, and is saved in VPD every 8 hours.

LOAD/UNLOAD ERROR
0001 05:01:10
The 'eee' in the example is the number of times, if more than once, that the ATTN message was called out
during a 5-second interval. The error in this example occurred on the 1st day, 5th hour, 1st minute, and
10th second in "relative time."
