Hi all
Anybody out there using STK tape drives (9840 & 9940) on AIX 5.2 ?
If so, I would like to know which drivers you are using.
I have noticed that the STK drivers do not support extfm (extended file marks). According to the Device Configuration Guide this attribute is required.
We are intermittently experiencing the following errors (only on AIX, none of the other Media Servers connected to the SAN):
*************************************
19:17:49.495 [311324] <2> write_data: block position check: actual 451588, expected 451587
*************************************
02:48:55.499 [1323212] <2> tape_error_rec: cannot read position for error recovery, read_position scsi command failed, key = 0x3, asc = 0x30, ascq = 0x2
*************************************
cannot write image to media id M02785, drive index 7, The media surface is damaged.
*************************************
All of these errors result in error 84.
Regards
Marianne
