Scsi Sense Data - Tape Drive Error - IBM TS2900 Setup, Operator, And Service Manual

SCSI Sense Data – Tape Drive Error
The following example of SCSI Sense Data was received from a System p Open
System host and shows a Tape Drive Failure and what the sense data would look like.
Like the SCSI sense data in the previous example, this data contains valid sense data
as defined by the hex "71" in the first sense byte position. Therefore, we have valid
data to rely on. While the data shows that this is a TAPE_ERR2, further review of the
ASC/ASCQ (Media Load or Eject Failed) points more to a problem with the media or
the drive. The fact that a FID was listed ("86") defines the failure as "The drive
detected a drive hardware or media fault". In this case, the FID should be followed to
make a repair. For more information about Sense Key and ASC/ASCQ fields, refer to
the IBM TotalStorage LTO Ultrium Tape Drive SCSI Reference.
