Tape Library Error every after tape change.

[Karl_]

Hi,

I always receive an error (see below) when I issue the command mc -p /dev/rac/c23t4d1 -r DS command after a tape is loaded/unloaded from our COMPAQ MSL5000 Series tape library.

#mc -p /dev/rac/c23t4d1 -r DS
ERROR: 0x6 Unit Attention : 0x288d Unknown Additional Sense Code

This error only occures once (every after a tape load/unload from the tape library). The succeeding mc commands after receiving this error are okay.

Thanks,

Karl

It is highly possible your library needs servicing...

Have it checked. and diags run... Is this Library bridged (via NSR/MPR) or direct attached?
