The movement of the cleaning tape is handled differently
depending on the SuperLoader model.
SuperLoader DLT
1
If the move command, that unloaded the drive, was initiated from
SCSI, the cleaning tape is moved from its storage slot, to the drive,
the cleaning is performed and the cleaning tpae is returned to its
storage slot, before command complete status is returned to the
SCSI host. If an unrecoverable error occrus when moving a
cleaning cartridge that prevents a subsequent host initiated
command from completing, a check condition will be set in the
returned status byte and sense data is set appropriately.
SuperLoader LTO
1
If the move command that unloaded the drive was initiated from
SCSI, command complete is returned to the host when the move
completes. The cleaning tape is then moved from its storage slot to
the drive. The cleaning is performed and once complete, the
cleaning tape is returned to its stoage location. If a SCSI command
is received during this cleaning process, a not ready check
condition is reported (SK=-2 ASC=30 ASCQ=03).
