IC62401: CLEANING TAPE IS NOT EJECTED FROM THE DRIVE AFTER CLEAN DRIVE COMMAND.

IBM Tivoli Storage Manager V6.1 Fix Pack 3 (6.1.3) Server Downloads

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When clean drive command is executed, the process itself is
  completed successfully. But the cleaning tape volume is not
  ejected from the tape drive.
  
  
  TSM device driver trace says:
  [pvrddt.c][332][]:ds_lb_set_abnormal_state:  element=257
  asc=0x30, ascq=0x03
  [pvrddt.c][332][]:ds_lb_set_abnormal_state: as_map_count=9
  [pvrddt.c][332][]:ds_lb_set_abnormal_state: abnormal
  state=0x80000000
  [pvrddt.c][332][]:ds_lb_return_user_inventory_info: p
  0x89c48c74, stat_p 0x89c48c30
  [pvrddt.c][332][]:ds_lb_return_user_inventory_info: diff 68,
  inv_scanned_len 68
  [pvrddt.c][332][]:dd_ioctl: unlock ok.
  [pvrddt.c][332][]:dd_ioctl: 0x86e133c0
  **ADSM_LBIOC_LIBRARY_INVENTORY**  END rc 0, status 0, compcode 0
  
  
  This asc/ascq combination means that ADSM_LB_CLEANER_INSTALLED.
  And so when ds_lb_set_abnormal_state() is called
  the abnormal state is initialized to 0x8000000 which is
  ADSM_LB_INVALID_INFO.
  TSM device driver should report ASC/ASC sense data 0x30/0x03
  as ADSM_LB_CLEANER_INSTALLED to TSM Server.
  
  
  TSM Versions Affected:
  TSM 5.5 server which uses the tape library managed by tsm device
  driver.
  
  Initial Impact: Low
  
  Additional Keywords: clean tape volume remained media
  

Local fix

• Eject the cleaning tape from the drive by hand.
