IT00532: ANR8302E I/O ERROR ON DRIVE DURING WRITE OPERATION ON OPTICAL MEDIA.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• During a write operation to optical WORM UDO2 media the Tivoli
  Storage Manager reports the following error message:
  ANR8302E I/O error on drive OPTICAL_DRIVEX (/dev/ropX) with
           volume XYZ1234 (OP=WRITE, Error Number=110,CC=401, rc=3
           KEY= 08, ASC=92, ASCQ= 00
  The problem was reported on a Plasmon UDO2 Drive, and looking in
  the Plasmon Manual  "UDO60 Drive Product Specification", the
  sense code ASC=92, ASCQ= 00, has the following meaning:
  "Overwrite Attempted - The drive attempted to write data on the
  written block."
  When this write operation is to optical Read-Write UDO2 media,
  the Tivoli Storage Manager reports success for this write
  operation.  However, the data previously written to this disc is
  potentially overwritten by this write operation.
  The problem is caused by the Tivoli Storage Manager not being
  able to handle the larger media capacity of 60GB. Currently the
  Tivoli Storage Manager server can only handle the optical media
  capacity of 30GB (dual-sided).
  This problem applies to optical devices with both Read-Write and
  WORM medium, when used with Tivoli Storage Manager kernel
  optical device drivers.
  .
  Initial Impact:
