My organization runs TSM version 5.2.2.1. The storage pool, TAPEPOOL, uses a 
tape library consisting of 2 X 4560SLX drives, master and slave. One drive, 
SDLT_1, has reported this error sxteen times since the beginning of the year:

ANR8944E Hardware or media error on drive SDLT_1 (/dev/tsmscsi/mt0) (OP=REW, 
Error Number=5, CC=306, KEY=03, ASC=81, ASCQ=00, 
SENSE=70.00.03.00.00.00.00.16.00.00.00.00.81.00.00.00.00.00.45.02.B2.00.00.2D.F7.02.47.2F.0A.,
 Description=Drive or media failure). Refer to Appendix D in the 'Messages' 
manual for recommended action.

The drive will stay online and continue functioning. This error has occurred on 
different media. The console of the tape library reports no errors in the error 
log.

Is this a hardware issue or related to TSM?? Any info is appreciated..
