Indicator Description
Power is off.
Unit is not functional (powering on, resetting
the tape drive by performing an IPL, or
collecting dump).
IPL failed.
Power on and IPL have executed properly.
Cartridge is not loaded or ejected.
Tape motion is in progress.
Tape loaded, and the tape drive is ready; unit
is operational.
Tape drive requires cleaning.
Certain intermittent media errors were
detected
A preset length of tape passed over the
read/write heads.
No error was detected.
An error was detected, and dump data has
been collected to EEPROM. Following a
successful IPL, display alternates between a
corporate "XXXX:DMP x"
Where XXXX = FSC, and x = number of
uncollected dumps in EEPROM. Optionally,
insert dump-formatted tape to copy data to the
tape. The operator can ignore a flashing
indicator. Flashing stops and messages are
removed when any tape is inserted or any
control is pressed. If within one minute the
tape drive detects the same FSC, the
message "DumpAgain?" is displayed: refer to
DumpAgain? Message
instructions.
A hardware error was detected and tape drive
is not functional. The operator cannot ignore a
constant indicator. If resetting the tape drive by
performing an IPL does not eliminate the
problem, contact your service provider to
replace the tape drive.
