Appendix D
RUNNING THE BASIC HEALTH CHECK (BHC) TEST VIA
THE LIBRARY PORT
This appendix explains how to run the DLT 8000 tape system’s BHC test on a tape drive
that is configured as a component within a library.
NOTE
The BHC feature is provided for use only by a trained service provider.
Issue the RUN BHC TEST command (15h) to the tape drive configured within the
library.
For the results of the BHC test, obtain Tape Data Packet 3 by issuing a SEND TAPE
DATA 3 command (13h). The results of the BHC test are reported in Byte 1 of Tape
Data Packet 3.
The BHC test status results possible are:
Code

00h
BHC Test Not Run
BHC test has not been invoked via the Library Port
since the last time that Tape Data Packet 3 was read.
The tape drive within the library sets this status after
each read of the Tape Data Packet 3
except
if the BHC
test is in progress.
01h

Diagnostic Test in Progress
This code indicates that a diagnostic test was in
progress when the library controller attempted to
invoke the BHC test. This prevents the BHC test from
running.
