LTO-5 Half-Height SAS Tape Drives
General Procedure
Are you using new cartridges or a different brand of cartridge? Have you
been using the particular cartridge for a very long time?
The problem could lie with the cartridge:
1. Check through the media chapter on "Use the correct media" on page 17 .
2. Check that you are using an LTO cartridge. Compatible media can be
recognized by the logo, which is the same as the logo on the front of your
drive.
3. Use the correct media type:
4. Has the cartridge been write-protected, see "Write protecting cartridges" on
page 19 ?
5. Clean the tape heads with the cleaning cartridge, see "Cleaning cartridges"
on page 17 . Make sure you are using the Ultrium Universal cleaning
cartridge.
6. If the Tape LED is flashing, the cartridge is probably faulty. Try using a
different cartridge.
7. Try the operation again.
8. If the problem still occurs and you have not yet replaced the cartridge, try
using a different cartridge.
9. If the problem is still there, the problem probably lies with the drive or the
host computer.
Has the drive been moved recently? Have any cables been disconnected
and reconnected? Has the environment changed—unusually hot, cold,
damp or dry? Has there been dust or dirt near the drive. Have reasonable
precautions against static been taken?
The problem could lie with the drive or the environment:
1. Check the cables and connectors.
2. Clean the tape heads with the cleaning cartridge.
3. If the problem persists, check the environmental conditions against the
specified limits. Perhaps move the drive to a more suitable site.
