LTO tape drive 一問

Hello ericfjchen



雖然LTO(or DLT)tape medium在防刮的設計上比其它類似tape drive(dds for example)要好很多.

但只要是medium與head有接觸機會的device都需要clean(避免刮傷tape).



比較上,DDS tape要主動固定clean(once per week if dds backup every day;pnce per month if dds backup less 5 times a month),否則等"clean led"亮了再clean,head 多多少少已受刮傷,減少壽命;反之LTO head 最好等到"clean led"亮了,才被動clean,否則clean太勤反而會過度損傷head(這是為什麼一般Library clean trigger設在 "dirty detected").

所以你聽到的說法應該是"不需要主動的 clean". fyi.

LTO tape drive 一問

Hello Eric,

No clean tape 所引起的問題大都是"Dirty drive detection".

EMS event 100084 大都發生在target devcie(0/10/0/0.8.0.255.7.10.3 in your case)can not found or can not access.

1.如果此device 屬於library (含FC/SCSI bridge/router)之一,則run device-mapping check map是否跑掉(map configuration issue or NSR f/w issue).

Wrokaround solution is reboot library.

2.如果此device 屬於standalone,fault led should be lit,f/w or hw replace would be the solution.



Hope this is useful for your question.

Hi 消遙,



此device 為 HP MSL 6060 的其中一個 tape drive, 請問該如何 run device-mapping to check map是否跑掉?



Thanks

最近常收到Event Monitor notification from HP MSL 6060, 已經有定期 clean tape drive, 換一卷 tape , 也會這樣....但是 tape drive 也沒 down, 還可以用, 請問到底是有什麼問題?
