SLTCOPY Messages
Message Failed to read tape! No records processed.
Cause Error occurred while reading the master tape. This
message only occurs after the tape drive has been open for
reading.
Action Check the tape drive cable connections, its configuration,
and whether or not the availability of the tape drive
changed after the tape reply. When the error is found,
restart SLTCOPY from the beginning.
Message Failed to read tape! The expected total number of the
tape's EOF marks were encountered before the data.
Cause The format of the master tape is unknown to SLTCOPY.
SLTCOPY expects three end of file (EOF) marks to
