Resolving SCSI device problems
Tape drives and libraries might report information back to IBM Storage Protect about the error encountered. This information is reported in one or more of the messages.
If messages ANR8300, ANR8301, ANR8302, ANR8303, ANR8943, or ANR98944 are issued, the data that IBM Storage Protect reports from these devices might help to determine the steps that are needed to resolve the problem. Generally, when the server reports device data using these messages, the problem is typically with the device, the connection to the device, or some other related issue outside of IBM Storage Protect.
Using the information reported in IBM Storage Protect message ANR8300, ANR8301, ANR8302, ANR8303, ANR8943, or ANR8944, refer to the IBM Storage Protect Messages product information at Messages, return codes, and error codes. This appendix documents information about standard errors that might be reported by any SCSI device. You can also use this information with documentation provided by the vendor for the hardware to help determine the cause and resolution for the problem.
