SLTCOPY Messages
Message Invalid file name.
Cause The file name that you entered does not meet the MPE syntax
requirements for file names. Note that you cannot use HFS syntax (such
as /SYS/PUB/tapefile) for file names supplied to SLTCOPY.
Action Enter a different file name that meets MPE syntax requirements.
Message Undefined system file.
Cause File name entered is undefined to the system. Note that you cannot use
HFS syntax (such as /SYS/PUB/tapefile) for file names supplied to
SLTCOPY.
Action Enter a different file name that meets MPE syntax requirements.
Message Copy# on LDEV # is bad. The tape may be too short or an I/O error
occurred.
Cause Most often, this means that the tape onto you tried to make the copy was
shorter than the master tape.
Action Rerun SLTCOPY using a longer tape onto which to make the copy, or
recreate the master on a shorter tape.
Message Purge failed on old file
Cause Unable to purge the disk file with the same name as the file name you
entered. Occurs only with Option 1 (Copy tape to disk).
Action Purge the disk file and restart SLTCOPY.
Message Open failed for LDEV #
Cause SLTCOPY couldn't access the tape drive.
Action Check the tape drive cable connections, its configuration, and whether or
not it's available to this process.
Message Open failed for COPY1 Operation inconsistent with access type
(FSERR40)
Cause You attempted to copy to more than one remote tape, when NOWAITIO
was in effect.
Action If you need to copy to multiple remote tapes, make sure the appropriate
file equations are set (see Chapter 5, “Modifying Your System,”), and
reinvoke SLTCOPY using the WAITIO option:
:SLTCOPY; INFO="WAITIO"
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.
