Chapter 4 SCSI Commands

READ ATTRIBUTE Command (8Ch)

DLT-S4 Interface Reference Guide

261

• Super DLTtape media does not require that attributes be written 

(using the 

WRITE ATTRIBUTE 

command) in ascending order. The 

attributes that can be written are independent of one another and can 

be written in any order.

• Since EMAM is written to the tape, there is always a short window 

during which the tape is loaded but the attributes have not been read 

from the tape and stored in RAM. If, during this brief span of time, 

the drive receives a 

READ ATTRIBUTE 

or

 WRITE ATTRIBUTE 

command, it responds with the Sense Key set to

 NOT READY

, and the 

Additional Sense Code set to 

LOGICAL UNIT NOT READY, MAM NOT 

AVAILABLE

. The application should retry the command in this case.

A Comparison of MAM 
and EMAM

4

The tape drive incorporates a new feature called Enhanced Medium 

Auxiliary Memory (EMAM). This feature is used to store MAM attributes 

in a log file on the tape itself. The attributes are accessed using the 

READ 

ATTRIBUTE 

and 

WRITE ATTRIBUTE

 commands. An EMAM device mimics 

a MAM device, with the following exceptions:
• If the tape is bulk erased, the EMAM attribute data is lost. The next 

time the tape is used, it has default values in the attribute fields.

• Since the EMAM data is read off the tape, the host needs to wait for 

one of two ready states to read and write attributes. If the DLT-S4 

tape drive is configured to report the MAM Available Unit Attention 

using the EEPROM setting “RepMAMAvailUA” (see 

table 87

 on 

page 151), once that UA is reported to the host, it can read and write 

MAM attributes.
If the DLT-S4 tape drive is not configured to report the MAM 

Available Unit Attention, the host needs to wait for the Not Ready to 

Ready transition prior to reading and writing MAM attributes. If the 

host sends 

READ ATTRIBUTE

 or 

WRITE ATTRIBUTE

 commands prior 

to the Ready state, the drive returns a

 CHECK CONDITION

 status. The 

Sense Data is set to 

NOT READY

, the Sense Key is set to 

LOGICAL UNIT 

NOT READY

, and the Additional Sense Code is set to 

MAM NOT 

AVAILABLE

.
