TapeAlert Flag Descriptions
TapeAlert is an open industry standard that flags errors and provides
possible solutions for storage devices and their media. This section
provides information about TapeAlert flags issued by tape drives,
including the identifying number, severity, recommended message, and
explains the severity codes, and
the existing TapeAlert flags and their descriptions.
Support for specific TapeAlert flags may vary based on tape drive type
and firmware revision. Not all tape drives support every TapeAlert.
Consult your tape drive SCSI manual for more information.
For more information on TapeAlert, see
