Subject: IBM LTO3 Tape Drive Error Reporting Question

 

Hi........

 

We have updated our TSM Library from IBM LTO2 tape drives to IBM LTO3
tape drives.  We have noticed that the IBM LTO3 tape drives to do not
report back to the TSM system with error_state code, write_errors code
and read_errors code like the IBM LTO2 tape drives did.  Has anyone
experienced this same type of problems??
