SPACE provides a variety of positioning functions that are determined by the Code and Count fields in the Command
Descriptor Block. Both forward (toward EOM/P) and reverse (toward BOM/P) positioning are provided.
Code
: The supported values are:

Code Description
000b
001b
011b
100b
Blocks
File-marks
End-Of-Data
Set-marks
Note
: The drive will reject a SPACE Set-mark command if it has not configured through MODE SELECT to report
Set-marks. The drive will return a CHECK CONDITION status with the Sense data set to ILLEGAL REQUEST. In
this command description the word “mark” is used to mean File-mark or Set-mark. Only where their responses differ
shall File-mark and Set-mark be referred explicitly.
Count
: When spacing over blocks or marks, the Count field is interpreted as follows:
A positive value N causes forward movement over N blocks or marks. The tape is logically positioned after the Nth
block (or mark) on the EOM/P side.
A ZERO value causes no change in the logical position.
A negative value -N (2’s complement notation) causes reverse movement over N blocks or marks. The tape is
logically positioned on the BOM /P side of the Nth block (or mark).
When spacing to EOD, the Count field is ignored. Forward movement occurs until the drive encounters EOD. The
position is such that a subsequent WRITE command would append data after the last entity that has been written to
tape before EOD.
When executing a SPACE, the drive implements the following hierarchy: Blocks (lowest), File-marks, Set-marks,
EOD, BOM/P or EOM/P (highest)
Therefore, SPACE N blocks will halt with GOOD status after the Nth block, or with CHECK CONDITION status on
any occurrence of File-mark, Set-mark, EOD, BOM/P or EOM/P. A SPACE N File-marks will halt on the Nth
File-mark or on any occurrence of Set-mark, EOD, BOM/P or EOM/P, and so on. Within the Sense data, the fields
will be set as described on the following table.
