Cannot write to or read from
tape
• Make sure that the cartridge is write enabled (move the
write-protect switch to the enabled position).
• Make sure that the cartridge has not been written using an
incompatible format.
• Make sure that the cartridge is an acceptable format for
your drive type (see
Specifications).
• Make sure that the cartridge has not been exposed to
harsh environmental or electrical conditions and is not
physically damaged in any way.
• Many backup applications do not read or write to
cartridges that were created using a different backup
application. In this case, you may have to perform an
erase, format, or label operation on the cartridge.
• Make sure you understand any data protection or
overwrite protection schemes that your backup
application may be using, which could prevent you from
writing to a given cartridge.
• Retry the operation with a different, known good tape.
• Clean the tape drive. See Cleaning the Tape Drive.
SCSI ID
Changed drive SCSI ID, but the
host server system does not
recognize the new ID
• Make sure that all SCSI devices on the same bus have
unique ID numbers.
• If the SCSI bus is narrow (50-pin) only SCSI IDs 0 through
7 are available.
• Make sure that you cycle power on the autoloader after
changing the SCSI ID.
• Reboot the host server system.
