LTO3 HW problem

the_0utsider1
Level 3

Anyone have their tape drive out of the blue (IBM LTO3 scsi) display 2?

Looking up the manual, it says this is the mode to update firmware?!?!?!?!

I tried holding down the button for a few seconds to exit maintenance mode but nothing happens.

The only reaction i get is if i hold the button down for about 8??? seconds and it reboots.

TIA

Hi,

 

Update the firmware with the vendor's diagnostic utility and see if this goes away.

You don't mention the make, but HP have Linrary and Tape Tools for instance.

Thanks!

This is a hardware problem which you should take up with IBM. This has nothing to do with BE
