Error description

  • In the read tape label operation for a volume loaded in a tape
    drive that is defined as VOLSAFE device class, the Tivoli Storag
    Manager Server attempts to query the drive for Logical Block
    Protection (LBP). Tape drives with VOLSAFE device class are
    identical to the devices that have device class ECARTRIDGE,
    especially for Oracle StorageTek tape drives. These devices are
    capable of the Logical Block Protection function. When these
    devices are defined to the VOLSAFE device class the Logical
    Block Protection function is disabled. The QUERYLBP should not
    be issued to devices that are defined as the VOLSAFE device
    class. This message ANR8302E should not be reported:
    ANR8302E I/O error on drive DRIVE1 (/dev/mt01) with volume
             VOLXXXX (OP=QUERYLBP, Error Number=22, CC=207, rc = 1,
             KEY= FF, ASC=FF, ASCQ= FF, SENSE=**NONE**,
             Description=Device is not in a state capable of
             performing request). Refer to the Tivoli Storage
             Manager documentation on I/O error code descriptions.
    The QUERYLBP ioctl is used to verify if the current environment
    supports Logical Block Protection, and should only be issued whe
    the device class supports LBP.
    Initial Impact: LOW
    .
    Tivoli Storage Manager Versions Affected:
    The Logical block protection function affects Tivoli Storage
    Manager Server versions 6.3.3, 7.1.0, and higher versions.
    .
    Additional Keywords:
    LBP ANR8302E ANR8311E QUERYLBP STK Logical Block Protection

Local fix

    operations and can be ignored until the server can be upgraded.
