HCP2241E TAPE rdev AN OPERATION WAS
TERMINATED BECAUSE A TAPE
LENGTH INCOMPATIBLE ERROR
OCCURRED
Explanation: The tape length in the cartridge on
device rdev is too long for the device it was mounted
on.
This error could occur when a tape longer than a
Cartridge System Tape is mounted on a device which is
only capable of processing Cartridge System Tapes.
This message is displayed in conjunction with other
messages that provide information about channel
command word, sense, user ID, and other variables
when necessary.
System Action: System action continues.
Operator Response: You should remove the cartridge
and mount it on a device which is capable of processing
the cartridge.
HCP2242E TAPE rdev AN OPERATION WAS
TERMINATED BECAUSE A TAPE
LENGTH VIOLATION ERROR
OCCURRED
Explanation: The tape length in the cartridge on
device rdev is too long.
This error could occur when a tape longer than an
Enhanced Capacity Cartridge System Tape is mounted
on a device which is not capable of processing tapes
longer than Enhanced Capacity Cartridge System
Tapes.
This message is displayed in conjunction with other
messages that provide information about channel
command word, sense, user ID, and other variables
when necessary.
System Action: System action continues.
Operator Response: You should remove the cartridge
and retry the operation using a cartridge with a tape
length that is supported on device rdev.
HCP2243E TAPE rdev AN OPERATION WAS
TERMINATED BECAUSE A
COMPACTION ALGORITHM
INCOMPATIBLE ERROR OCCURRED
Explanation: Tape on device rdev cannot be read or
decompacted because the subsystem does not support
the compaction algorithm used to compact the tape.
System Action: The operation is terminated, and the
system logs a permanent error.
User Response: The tape should be removed and
mounted on a device that is capable of decompacting
the logical block.
Programmer Response: When a unit check with
associated sense data indicating ERA X'5E' is
encountered, the unsupported algorithm identification
can be found in sense byte 9.
HCP2244I SWCH rdev WARNING, A POSSIBLE
INVALID ATTACHMENT HAS BEEN
DETECTED PORT NUMBER n1, PORT
ADDRESS n2
Explanation: The identified port may have an
attachment that is not valid due to one of the following
reasons:
v A port that is connected to a port on the same SWCH
or another SWCH does not have a dedicated
connection.
v A port transmitter is connected to its own receiver.
System Action: System operation continues.
Operator Response: Contact your system support
personnel to investigate this problem.
HCP2246E TAPE rdev WORM OVERWRITE
REJECTED.
Explanation: An attempt was made to overwrite data
to a Write Once Read Many (WORM) tape cartridge.
Writes are only allowed to a WORM cartridge to update
the data portion of a volume label construct, or if the
new data write follows the logical End Of Data (EOD)
mark for data previously written on the tape.
System Action: System operation continues, but the
current tape operation has ended with a permanent
error condition.
Operator Response: Position the current WORM
cartridge following the EOD mark or use a brand new
WORM cartridge that has never been written to before.
If the problem persists, contact your system support
personnel.
HCP2251A TAPE rdev CAPABLE CK CMD=cm

Explanation: The tape error recovery routine found an
unrecoverable capability check I/O error. The variables
in this message are as follows:
rdev The failing device
HCP2241E HCP2251A
cm The command code, in hexadecimal, of the
channel command word (CCW) being executed
when the error occurred
sense The sense bytes, in hexadecimal, for the error
condition
irb The failing interrupt response block (IRB), in
hexadecimal
