Sense Key
The Sense Key field provides basic information about an error.
TABLE 4-120 lists the Sense Keys with an explanation for each code. The Sense Key
field, with the Additional Sense Code and Additional Sense Code Qualifier fields,
provides a description about the error.
See “Additional Sense Codes and Qualifiers” on page 222 for more information.
Additional Sense Codes and Qualifiers
Bytes 12 and 13 of the sense data contain the Additional Sense Code (ASC) and
Additional Sense Code Qualifier (ASCQ) fields. These codes provide additional
device-specific information about the error or exception.
Each code contains a unique combination of the sense key, additional sense code, and
additional sense code qualifier. The following pages describe the error codes for the
library grouped by type of sense key.

the parameter list data.

ready-to-ready transition has occurred, or an I/O element has been
accessed. Also, this may indicate mode parameters have changed, or
the microcode has been changed.
