Write or Read Issues
Contaminated head
Avoid contamination by ensuring that the library is installed in a
clean, contamination-free environment. Cartridges should be
stored vertically in their plastic cases. Continue cleaning the tape
drive as needed.
If a cleaning cartridge is not successful in resolving the problem
after 3 or more attempts, the cleaning cartridge may be
contaminated and should not be used in another drive.
Non-acclimated media
A cartridge should be acclimated for at least 24 hours before
being used, particularly if it has been stored at a substantially
different temperature or level of humidity than the library.
Cleaning cartridge is
Incompatible
Make sure you are using an allowed cleaning cartridge.
Expired cleaning cartridge
Verify the number of cleanings per cleaning tape for your media
type.
Bad/defective/contaminated
media
If the write/read errors persist and the drive has been
cleaned, that cartridge should be suspected as being
defective, if it is not an invalid cleaning cartridge.
If this occurs, export the cartridge and load a known good
cartridge. In some cases, a cartridge can be worn out, have a
defective cartridge memory, or have been formatted as a
Firmware Upgrade Tape.
Any cartridge that is suspected of being defective or
contaminated should NOT be reused in any drive.
