I get frustrated when I see something like this:

ANR8944E Hardware or media error on drive DRIVE_02 (/dev/rmt0) with volume
444035L4(OP=LOCATE, Error Number= 110, CC=0, KEY=03, ASC=09, ASCQ=00,
SENSE=70-
.00.03.00.00.00.00.58.00.00.00.00.09.00.36.00.78.B5.78.B5.00.01.34.34.34.30.33-
.35.4C.19.00.00.15.04.CB.00.00.00.00.00.80.2B.60.00.00.00.20.DD.20.00.00.00.00-
.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00-
.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.37.41.33.31.00.00.00.00.00.00,
Description=An undetermin-
ed error has occurred). Refer to Appendix C in the 'Messages' manual for
recommended action.
ANR8359E Media fault detected on LTO volume 444035L4 in drive DRIVE_02
(/dev/rmt0) of library GOBI.
ANR1080W Space reclamation is ended for volume 444035L4. The process is
canceled.
ANR1163W Offsite volume 333114L2 still contains files which could not be moved.A
NR0986I Process 1714 for SPACE RECLAMATION running in the BACKGROUND processed
80934 items for a total of 13,531,260,308 bytes with a completion state of
FAILURE at 10:54:00.

At the time I cancelled this a query process showed something in excess of 
26,000 files unreadable and I had several hundred entries in the AIX error log. 
(I have 28, 896 occurances of the ANR8944E error message today, so I presume 
that's the accurate count).

I cancelled the process, the input tape dismounted, the library cleaned the 
drive - and I processed 717,095 files with no errors.

Do I have to come up with a script of my own to catch and kill processes like 
this?

TIA -
