Write/ Read Diagnostic Submenu
Write/Read Diagnostics test the
W/R Diag
drive write/read function by
writing/reading data to/from a
scratch tape.
A tape cartridge, if present,
ejects when this option is
selected.
Make sure a known good,
scratch (formatted for data) tape
cartridge is available. The
diagnostic routine is designed
and intended to check drive
functions, NOT tape media. A
faulty tape cartridge will cause
unexpected/misleading errors.
"WrtRd Diag" displays
during the approximately
5 minute routine.
If CHK xxxx displays, see FSC
Dictionary for information.
Note: The following Drive Diagnostics Submenu Item is not currently functional,
although it appears as a menu option after firmware release level 1.30.109.
Not Available will display whenever you attempt to exercise this option until
it is activated in a future firmware release.
Servo Head Diagnostic Submenu
Servo Head Diagnostics test the
SrvoHdDiag
