Table 2-6: Forced Streaming and AVC On Different Medium Types
2.9.4.
Recommended Settings
SLR140, SLR100, SLR75, SLR60 and SLR7 Drives
Forced Streaming = 0
AVC = on
SLR50 Drives
Forced Streaming = 1024
AVC = on
The optimal Forced Streaming value is dependent on both
host behavior, host transfer rate and compression ratio
on data actually written. Fine-tuning should be done on
“ real life systems” with “ real life data” .
2.10. Recorded Objects
The recording formats [9] - [14] specify that recorded
elements (blocks and tapemarks) have identifiers
included in the recorded information to help determining
the write sequence and also to help detecting position-
ing errors. These identifiers are unique within the
whole volume.
The identifiers are associated with physical blocks
only. This means that a possible logical block number
maintained by the host system will not be the same as
the physical identifier of the same logical block
because logical blocks may span over multiple physical
blocks.
The physical identifiers are normally not visible to the
host system. There are, however, some exceptions. In the
Tandberg SLR Product Line Tape Drives, the READ POSITION
and LOCATE commands may transfer physical block
identifiers to/from the host system. The host system is,
however, not expected to process this data in any way.
The identifiers transferred from the Drive by the READ
POSITION command should just be stored and then
transferred unmodified back to the Drive at some future
time by the LOCATE command.
