26.4. Predefined Selftest Sequence 2
Selftest sequence 2 will affect (write over) the
currently inserted media. Previously written data will
be lost. In addition, the test will partition the tape
to a single partition. The following tests are
performed:
Cartridge Manipulation Functional Test. Load/unload
cartridge and measure time of operation and motor
current during operation. The test focus is on
motor/mechanical problems forcing operation out of
specification.
Read/Write Test. Real read and write using tape. The
test focus is on Drive HW problems.
This test involves actual reading and writing on the
tape. Note that the tape is always rewound back to BOT
before Selftest Sequence 2 is started. The tape format
actually used will be set automatically to the highest
format allowed on the inserted medium type.
The data pattern alternates between four different
patterns: a block count pattern, a 29h pattern, a 60h
pattern and a byte count pattern.
After the write test the tape is rewound to BOT. A read
test is performed. Here the data is read back from the
tape in streaming mode.
During the tests no “ hard” errors are normally allowed.
If a “ hard” read or write error or more rereads than
specified should occur, the test will be aborted. The
SEND DIAGNOSTICS command returns with CHECK CONDITION
status. If no “ hard” read or write error has occurred
and the rereads are within the specified limit, no error
is reported when the test completes.
