Re: HP DAT Loader Hardware error

2000-06-26 Thread Philip Chonacky

Was there some other sypmtom involved?  In the past, when I have gotten that error, it 
was usually because the drive had not released the tape properly.  It could also be a 
misreported error, or there is a tape not loaded properly.


Hello:

I recently installed an HP DD3 Autoloader (external). It ran fine for 
the first set of tapes. When the user installed the second set, the 
drive started returning the following error:

Loader for "HP DAT DDS-DC, SCSI 1:5" reported a hardware failure when 
moving tapes.

The script then pauses until it times out.

Any ideas what this could be?

Did not include much information in my original post. For the moment, 
it appear that there was a DDS-4 tape mixed in with the DDS-3 tapes. 
Everytime the loader got to the DDS-4, it ejected the entire caddy. 
Removing this tape seemed to have corrected the error.
