00 00 No additional sense - The flags in the sense data indicate the reason for the command
failure
00 01 Filemark detected - A Read or Space command terminated early due to an FM. The FM
flag is set.
00 02 EOM - A Write or Write File Marks command failed because the physical end of tape was
encountered, or a Read or Space command encountered EOM. The EOM flag is set.
00 04 BOM - A space command ended at Beginning of Tape. The EOM bit is also set.
00 05 EOD - Read or Space command terminated early because End of Data was encountered.
04 00 Cause not reportable - A cartridge is present in the drive, but it is in the process of being
unloaded.
04 01 Becoming Ready - A media access command was received during a front panel initiated
load or an immediate reported load command.
04 02 Initializing Command Required - A cartridge is present in the drive, but is not logically
loaded. A Load command is required.
04 03 Manual Intervention Required - A cartridge is present in the drive but could not be
loaded or unloaded without manual intervention.
0C 00 Write Error - A Write operation has failed. This is probably due to bad media, but may be
hardware related.
11 00 Unrecovered Read Error - A Read operation failed. This is probably due to bad media,
but may be hardware related.
