LOCATE command 2Bh
The LOCATE command causes the tape unit to position to a specific logical location. The Block
address field specifies the target location; the logical unit positions in front of the block associated
with the Block address (i.e. on the BOT side of the block.) Any buffered write data and filemarks are
written to the tape before the locate operation occurs.

If Immed (Immediate) =0, status is not returned for the LOCATE com-
mand until the locate operation has completed or has failed
1
If Immed bit = 1, status is returned for the LOCATE command as soon as
the CDB has been validated and any buffered write data and filemarks have
been written to tape. The locate operation has been started but not neces-
sarily completed when status is returned.

If CP bit =0, the Change Partition field is ignored. (The tape format only
supports one partition, partition 0, so this field should only be set to 0 when
the CP bit is set to 1.)

If CP bit =1, the Change Partition field specifies the target partition.
