About this task

When Post Error Reporting is disabled, deferred-check conditions are not reported to the host and temporary errors are not reported in the sense data. This setting is normal (default) for the drive. When Post Error Reporting is disabled, Function code U is displayed in Maintenance mode. The drive defaults to Post Error Reporting disabled after a reboot or power off/on cycle.

Procedure

  1. Place the drive in Maintenance mode. For instructions, see Entering Maintenance mode.
  2. Press Unload once per second until either P or U displays in the SCD. P or U displays in the SCD to indicate the current setting for Post Error Reporting. If you cycle past the wanted code, press Unload once per second until the code reappears.
  3. Exit Maintenance mode if you do not want to change the current setting for Post Error Reporting. For instructions, see Exiting Maintenance mode.
  4. To disable Post Error Reporting, press and hold Unload for 3 seconds while P displays in the SCD. The SCD changes to U after you release Unload.
  5. Press Unload once per second to select another Maintenance mode function. To exit Maintenance mode, refer to Exiting Maintenance mode.
