Notes:
a. Run the Short Test Sequence first. If all tests pass, run the Long Test 
Sequence. Refer to the appropriate test description and follow the 
recommended procedures.
b. Error 1 indicates that the tape unit does not recognize that a cartridge is 
inserted into the tape drive. If, in fact, there is no cartridge in the drive, the 
problem can be corrected by simply inserting a cartridge. Follow the 
directions given in "Error Type #1 - Repair Procedure."
If there is a tape cartridge inserted into the tape drive, the problem is that 
certain tape or tape drive failures may cause the tape drive to erroneously 
report "missing tape" errors (tape Error Type #1 OR Aux Data value 9024). 
Since this error may be the result of a problem with either the tape or the 
tape drive unit, the tape cartridge should be replaced first. If the problem 
persists, the tape unit should be replaced. When this error is first 
detected, follow "Error Type #1 - Repair Procedure."
Error Type #1 - Repair Procedure: 
1.Replace the tape cartridge (if one exists) in the tape unit associated with 
this error with a new tape cartridge.
2.Issue the test tape [a/b] repeat 2 command for the tape drive unit that 
has the error. 
3.If all the tests pass, assume that the problem has been resolved.
If some of the tests fail, resolve the corresponding errors, and 
repeat step #2.
4.If translations have not already been saved onto the new tape, issue the 
save translations command.
5.If the system contains recorded announcements, issue the save 
announcements command.
