Aborted Command Sense Key
The library generates an Aborted Command error code when a SCSI command is
aborted because of a SCSI protocol error. The initiator might not register a Check
Condition status related to these errors because of the nature of the aborted
commands, but the sense data is available. The following pages describe the
conditions of the library that generates Aborted Commands.
TABLE 6-90 Aborted Command Sense Keys
Mechanical Positioning Error
The library detected an error while trying to position the PTP and the operation
could not be completed.
SCSI Parity Error
The library detected a parity error during a data transfer operation, or the host
rejected a Restore Pointers message.
Initiator Detected Error
The library receives an Initiator Detected Error message from the initiator, and the
operation could not be completed.
Command Phase Error
The library detected a command phase error and the operation could not be
completed.
Data Phase Error
The library detected a data phase error and the operation could not be completed.
Command Overlap
The library detected another command from an initiator while one was already in
process.
