Symptoms
Manual Clean not Incrementing Use Count
Cause
Unlike the SL500, the SL3000 does not have a Manual Cleaning option in the SLConsole when using AutoClean.
Solution
Manual cleans can only be accomplished by using a Diagnostic Move command from the SLConsole. When using a cleaning tape in this manual manner, the "use count" of the cleaning tape will not increment. This is known behavior and there is no current plan to modify it.
NOTE: Manual cleaning will have no effect on many drives if the transport is not in a "clean requested" state. In addition, routine manual cleans can have detrimental effects such as decreased head life. Engineering recommends that cleaning should be done only when a transports requests a clean.
