Tape Alert
TapeAlert is a tape drive status monitoring and messaging utility that makes it easy to detect problems that could affect backup quality. From the use of worn-out tapes to
defects in the drive hardware, TapeAlert provides easy-to-understand warnings of errors as they arise, and suggests a course of action to remedy the problem.
TapeAlert allows users and network managers to eliminate unnecessary errors and ensure that data integrity and security are never compromised. To take advantage of
TapeAlert, you need:
TapeAlert-compatible tape drives
l
TapeAlert-compatible backup software
l
How it works
TapeAlert compatible tape drives—such as the DELL PowerVault 110T SDLT 320 drive—are delivered with standard TapeAlert features. The internal TapeAlert firmware
constantly monitors the tape drive hardware and the media, checking for errors and potential difficulties. Any problems identified are flagged on a new SCSI log page.
After a backup has been completed, the TapeAlert-compatible backup application automatically reads the drive's TapeAlert SCSI log page to check for any problems. If an
error is flagged, the backup software displays a clear warning message on the user's monitor, and adds the TapeAlert messages to its logs. These messages are standard
across all applications that support TapeAlert, and are designed to give a clear explanation of the problem and suggested resolution. For example, users attempting to back
up onto a worn-out tape would encounter the message:
WARNING: The tape cartridge has reached the end of its useful life:
1. Copy the data you need to another tape
2. Discard the old tape
Errors Monitored
TapeAlert currently checks for the following types of errors:
Drive recoverable read problems
l

l

l

l
Drive hardware defects

TapeAlert is an advanced technological standard that provides a comprehensive range of state-of-the-art features and functions. It has also been designed to allow
considerable expansion and development in the future, as new possibilities and opportunities open up.
