An uncorrectable tape error is one in which a block error persists during a read
or write operation to the tape. Errors of this type are unable to be corrected by
several attempts at rereading or rewriting the block on the tape. This type of error
is most likely the result of one or more hard errors on the tape (for example, a
scratch or a hole in the tape that spans multiple sectors).
This test passes only if no block errors of any type are detected after the test
completes. Otherwise, the test fails and returns an error code of the form "x0y,"
where:
x indicates the number of uncorrectable block errors detected by the test
[0-5]
y indicates the number of correctable block errors detected by the test
[0-5]
The software stores the block location for at most five errors of each type.
