TapeAlert flags
This section is intended to provide information to the reader about the library and tape drive by using TapeAlert technology.
Additional information is provided to the reader about the tape library and tape drive. All error code and diagnostic information cannot be accessed from the Operator
Panel of the library. The Operator Panel will, however, display other library error codes and drive error codes when problems occur. For a listing of Operator Panel error
messages, see
Error codes .
TapeAlert is a standard that defines status conditions and problems that are experienced by devices such as tape drives, autoloaders, and libraries. The standard enables
a server to read TapeAlert messages (called flags) from a tape drive. The server reads the flags from Log Sense Page 0x2E.
This library is compatible with TapeAlert technology, which provides error and diagnostic information about the drives and the library to the server. Because library and
drive firmware might change periodically, the SNMP interface in the library does not require code changes if devices add extra TapeAlerts that are not supported today.
However, if this change occurs, the MIB is written to minimize impact to the SNMP monitoring station. At the time of this writing, the TapeAlert flags in this appendix
correctly represent TapeAlerts that are sent. The MIB file must not be taken to mean that all traps that are defined in the MIB will be sent by the library or that they will be
sent in the future.

01 Library
Hardware A The library mechanism is having
trouble with communicating with
the tape drive. 1. Cycle the power supply and try again.
2. If the problem persists, see
Contacting IBM technical support .
C
02 Library
Hardware B The library mechanism has a
hardware fault. W
03 Library
Hardware C Library mechanism has a hardware
fault that requires a reset to
recover. 1. Reset the library. For details, see Table 4 .
2. Restart the operation.
3. If the problem persists, see
Contacting IBM technical support .
C
04 Library
Hardware D The library mechanism has a
hardware fault that is not
mechanism-related, or requires
power cycle to recover. 1. Cycle the power supply and try again.
2. If the problem persists, see
Contacting IBM technical support .
C
06 Library Interface The library identified an interface
fault.
1. Check all cables and cable connections.
2. Restart the operation.
3. If the problem persists, see
Contacting IBM technical support .

08 Library
Maintenance Library preventive maintenance
required. Preventive maintenance of the library is required. Consult the library user's
manual for device-specific preventive maintenance tasks. W
