About this task
Note: If the cartridge in the drive is an INPUT tape that
contains ACTIVE or 'ONLY COPY' data (there is no backup), eject commands
that are issued at the host fail to unload the tape, and power-cycling
the drive fails to eject the cartridge, make no further attempts to unload this tape. Call Technical Support and open a PMR if one is not already open, to initiate the
process of sending the drive with the loaded cartridge in for recovery.
