Error description

• If a tape drive gets a failure when dismounting and the tape
  stays stuck in the drive, the server may incorrectly record that
  the drive is empty and subsequent  use of that drive will cause
  mount problem.
  An example of dismount error can be:
  ANR8302E I/O error on drive DRIVExx (\\.\Tape7) with volume NONE
  (OP=OFFL, Error Number=0, CC=203, rc = 2863, KEY= 02, ASC=04,
  ASCQ= 02,~SENSE=70.00.02.00.00.00.00.58.00.00.00.00.04.02.30.00
  .10.12.00.00.0E.00.,~Description=Manualintervention required).
  
  Subsequent failures could be like these examples:
  
  -	During backupset generation:
  ANR3525W GENERATE BACKUPSET: Transaction failed - storage media
