TapeAlert reporting
Note: Though not mentioned for every Customer Action, the customer must always call for IBM service
after any unsuccessful attempt to recover from a failure or problem.
TapeAlert
reporting is an industry standard that provides status monitoring and problem detection
capability for tape devices with the bre interface in an Open Systems environment. The TapeAlert
interface uses as many as 64 alert flags, which are read by the host from the device by using log sense
page 0x2e. Some of the flags are mandatory and must be supported by the tape drive. The remainder are
non-mandatory flags and can be unsupported. All flags at the drive are cleared at Power On Reset (POR).
Only those TapeAlert flags that are used by the 3592 drive are included here.
The 3592 drive supports the TapeAlert flags that are found in Table 6 on page 12 that were developed
for tape drive and autoloader devices.
