Current Speed—Displays the current negotiated data transfer speed for Parallel SCSI tape
libraries. The possible values are:
— Asynchronous—The current data transfer speed for this tape library is asynchronous.
— Fast—The current data transfer speed for this tape library is 10 million transfers per
second.
— Ultra—The current data transfer speed for this tape library is 20 million transfers per
second.
— Ultra2—The current data transfer speed for this tape library is 40 million transfers per
second.
— Ultra3—The current data transfer speed for this tape library is 80 million transfers per
second.
— Unknown—The agent is unable to determine the current negotiated data transfer speed
for this tape library.
NOTE:
If the current data transfer width is Narrow (8 bits) then the speed in megabytes
per second is equal to the million transfers per second speed. If the current width is Wide
(16 bits) then the speed in megabytes per second is twice the million transfers per second
speed. For example, if the current speed is Ultra and the width is Wide then the speed would
be 40 megabytes per second.
•
Negotiated Link Rate—Displays the negotiated link rate for SAS and SATA tape libraries.
The possible values are:
— 1.5 Gbps—The negotiated link rate for this tape library is 1.5 gigabits per second.
— 3.0 Gbps—The negotiated link rate for this tape library is 3.0 gigabits per second.
— Unknown—The agent is unable to determine the negotiated link rate for this tape library.
— Door Status—Displays the status of the door. The following values are valid:
◦
Not Supported—The door status is not supported by the device.
◦
Closed—The door is closed.
◦
Open—The door is open.
◦
Unknown—The state of the tape library door cannot be determined. You may need
to upgrade the Storage Agents.
•
Total Moves—Displays the number of tape moves for the library loader arm.
•
Service Hours—Displays the number of hours of operation for the library.

Tape Drive Information
Select one of the tape drive entries from the Mass Storage submenu to display the following
information about that drive.
•
Status—Displays the status of the tape drive. The following values are valid:
— OK—Indicates the tape drive is operating normally.
— Degraded—Indicates the tape drive has degraded in some manner.
— Failed—Indicates the tape drive has failed and can no longer return data. The tape drive
may need to be replaced.
— Offline—Indicates the Storage Agents can no longer communicate with the tape drive.
This could be caused by a cabling problem or the tape drive may be powered off.
— Missing - Was OK—Indicates that a tape drive that was located in a system and had a
status of OK has been removed.
