Resetting the Drive
You can reset the drive without powering off the drive and system. This may be
necessary if the drive stops responding. To do this, press and hold the eject button
on the front panel of the tape drive for 10 seconds (Figure 3-3 on page 3-2). The
drive forces a dump of vital technical data to drive memory and overwrites the
existing dump. The drive then reboots to allow communication.
