LOCATE command uses this identifier to position the medium to this same logical position in a high-
performance fashion.

READ POSITION (34h) Command Descriptor Block — Field Descriptions
Field Name
Description
LUN
Logical Unit Number. The target ignores this field. Only an IDENTIFY message
can change the LUN.
BT
Block Type. This bit indicates how the position is interpreted. Since the tape drive
uses the same logical block address whether this bit is set or not, it ignores setting
BT. The logical block address values include all recorded objects: blocks and
filemarks.
