Information in this document applies to any platform.
Symptoms
Lot of MVCs were marked as “warranty expired” in the MVCRPT. Reviewing the VOLPRT’s.
Cause
ALP Criteria
The T10000B/C/D tape drives will also post expiration for tapes if certain ALP related thresholds are exceeded. This is done to prevent wearing out of 1 section of tape (for example if there was an active ALP that is referenced frequently).This expiration criteria is calculated/checked whether or not the account uses the ALP feature and regardless whether or not the tape is actually written in ALP format. The media vendor does not recognize T10000 media as being expired due to any ALP expiration criteria and this criteria is not factored into the Media Warranty Life (MWL) number presented by the drive.
Solution
Upgrade T10000C RTDs to firmware RA362112 or higher
