status, or when failure occurs in "cleanup" activity following an operation
that was terminated by BUS RELEASE. The command for which
status was reported is therefore unlikely to be the cause of the
CONDITION
deferred error. It simply gives the drive the opportunity to report
status for an error that already exists.
CONDITION
The Mark bit is set to 1 if a SPACE, READ or VERIFY command did not
complete because a filemark was read. This bit may only be set if the sense
key is NO SENSE.
The End of Medium flag is set if a WRITE or WRITE FILEMARKS command
completed in the early warning area. If no other error occurred, the sense
code will be set to NO SENSE with additional sense of 0002h (EOT). If
another error occurred, the sense code and additional sense will reflect that
error. It is also set if BOP is encountered while spacing over blocks or
filemarks in the reverse direction.

The Sense Key Specific Bytes (bytes 15 through 17) are invalid. The C/D,
BPV and Bit pointer fields will be zero. The top byte of the Field Pointer will
be zero, and the bottom byte will contain a product-specific error code.
The Sense Key Specific Bytes are valid. This will only happen when the bytes
assume the role of Field Pointer Bytes as defined by ANSI. This occurs when
an Illegal Field check detects an error in a command descriptor block or a
Parameter List check detects an error in a command parameter list.
The Field Pointer information applies to the parameter list for the command.
The Field Pointer information applies to the command descriptor block.
