conditions.

13.8.1 Tivoli Storage Manager errors

Error analysis is a key point to your Tivoli Storage Manager environment. If for
any reason the Tivoli Storage Manager cannot write data to a tape, it may retry
the operation (using hardware built-in recovery features) or it may fail due to a
non-recoverable error. The Tivoli Storage Manager will notify all error conditions
to the console, the Tivoli Storage Manager activity log, or the operating system
log. For example, you can check that the Tivoli Storage Manager has an error
condition logged by using the query actlog command with the SEARCH
parameter, as shown in Example 13-47.
