Table 37. TapeAlert flags supported by the Ultrium tape drive (continued)
Flag Number Flag Name Description Action Required
34 Download fail Set when an FMR image is
unsuccessfully downloaded to the
tape drive via the SAS interface.
Check the FMR image is correct. If
necessary, download the correct
FMR image.
36 Drive temperature Set when the drive temperature
sensor indicates that the drive's
temperature exceeds the
recommended temperature of the
library.
See “Contacting IBM technical
support” on page 139.
37 Drive voltage Set when the drive detects power
supply voltages that approach or
exceed the specified voltage limits.
38 Predictive failure of
drive hardware
Set when a hardware failure of the
tape drive is predicted.
39 Diagnostics required Set when the tape drive detects a
failure that requires diagnostics for
isolation.
51 Tape directory
invalid at unload
Set when the tape directory on the
tape cartridge that was previously
unloaded is corrupted. The
file-search performance is
degraded.
Use your backup software to
rebuild the tape directory by
reading all the data.
52 Tape system area
write failure
Set when the tape cartridge that
was previously unloaded might not
write its system area successfully.
Copy the data to another tape
cartridge, then discard the old tape
cartridge.
53 Tape system area
read failure
Set when the tape system area
might not be read successfully at
load time.
Copy the data to another tape
cartridge, then discard the old tape
cartridge.
55 Load failure Set when a hardware malfunction
prevents the tape cartridge from
being loaded into the drive, or
when a tape cartridge is stuck in
the drive.
If the tape cartridge does not load
in the drive:
1. Remove the tape cartridge from
the library and inspect it for
damage. If damaged, discard it.
2. Insert another tape cartridge
into the tape drive. If the
problem persists, see
“Contacting IBM technical
support” on page 139.
If the tape cartridge is stuck in the
drive:
1. Attempt to unload the tape
from the drive with the host
backup application that is with
the drive, or with the remote or
local UI.
2. If the cartridge still does not
unload, see “Contacting IBM
technical support” on page 139.
