Cause

This error could be due to one or more of the following:
• A bad spot on the media
• A failure of the drive to determine the data read from the tape was
good due to bad CRC
Suggested Actions
2
Following is a list of suggested actions:
• Check the Media IDs. Multiple Media IDs may indicate the drive is
the problem. Similar media IDs may indicate the media is the
problem.
• Use a cleaning tape and try the same media again. Then try different
media before indicating the drive as the failure.
• Run a Tape Drive Write/Read test with two pieces of media. If test
fails, contact customer support.

Logical Block Number
(LBN)
A block of data on media that includes all physical block associated with all
heads for that single point of media. For example, in the forward direction if
there are 4 heads and 10 tracks 5 forward and 5 backwards, there would be
two logical blocks going backwards. Yet these two logical blocks would
equate to 10 physical blocks.
