Hi DU Admins
Since last Friday evening we've been getting a lot of errors
from our tlz06 tape drive.
Most of these errors are for routine name ctape_iodone, some
for ctape_wfm and a few for ctape_move_tape. I've included a
representative uerf output from a ctape_iodone error below.
Can anyone tell from this if this is a hardware problem or
could it just be a bunch of bad tapes? I recently ran a head
cleaning tape through the drive so it shouldn't be a result of
dirty heads.
Thanks for any advice
Ian
