1. The tape against which Error Type #3329 has been logged should
reside in the Standby SPE. Issue the status system command to
determine which SPE is active.
If Error Type #3329 is logged against the Active SPE, follow Steps 1
through 3 of "Error Type #3329—Repair Procedure #1 (High and
Critical Reliability Systems)."
If Error Type #3329 is logged against the Standby SPE, follow Steps
4 through 7 of "Error Type 3329 - Repair Procedure #1 (High and
Critical Reliability Systems)."
2. Error while saving translations. Resolve other tape errors, and
reissue the save translations command.
j. Error Type #3841 indicates that a save translations operation failed
because the tape was in use. Wait two minutes, then issue the save
translations command. Try this a maximum of five times.
k. Error Type #3842 indicates a save translation failure due to a tape-related
problem. The following procedure is recommended to clear this error.
Error Type 3842 - Repair Procedure:
1. Look in the Hardware Error Log for Error Type #1793. If this error
exists, replace the tape cartridge in the tape unit on which the error
occurred with a new cartridge.
2. [G1.2 and later] Issue the test tape [a/b] long clear command for
the associated tape drive unit.
[G1.1 and earlier] Issue the test tape [a/b] long repeat 3 command
for the associated tape drive unit.
3. If all tests up to Test #505 pass, assume that the problem has been
resolved. Test #505 will fail if a successful save translations has not
occurred since the original failure.
If any tests other than Test #505 fail, resolve those errors and
repeat Step #3.
4. Issue the save translations command.
5. If the system contains recorded announcements, issue the save
announcements command.
l. Error Type #3843 indicates that during daily scheduled maintenance, the
automatic save translation failed. The failure occurred most likely as a
result of a hardware problem rather than a tape problem.
To clear Error Type #3843, follow the procedures given in the footnotes for
Error Type #3842.
m. [G1.1 and earlier] Translations were not saved on the tape(s)
corresponding to the port field(s) indicated. In this case, the port field
points to the Standby SPE at the time the error occurred. Resolve other
tape errors, and then issue the test tape long and save translations
commands, respectively.
