When the Fault light turns on (solid amber), the device causes AIX to log an information error
(TAPE_ERR6) in the AIX log, indicating that the tape drive needs to be cleaned.
v

environments might damage the tape drive. It is the customer’s responsibility to provide the proper
operating environment.
