If Logical Early Warning is encountered, the command continues to normal
completion, then reports Check Condition with No Sense and EOM set in the Sense
Data.
NOTE: If RSMK is set in Mode Data Page 10h, Byte 8, Bit 5, Set Marks will be
treated as Filemarks when spacing over data.
Spacing Over Consecutive Filemark Blocks: The number of consecutive
filemarks to be spaced over is specified in the Count Field. The tape is positioned
following the last Filemark in the sequence. If a data block is encountered, the count
is restored to its original value and the space operation continues, following the data
block. If Logical Early Warning is encountered, the command continues to normal
completion, then reports Check Condition with No Sense and EOM set in the Sense
Data.
Spacing to the End-of-Data: When spacing to the End-of-Data, the Count Field is
ignored. The drive will take the most direct route available to position the tape at
EOD.
When Logical Early Warning is encountered during the SPACE EOD operation, the
drive will complete the command normally, except that it will send back a Check
Condition, No Sense, and the EOM bit set in the Sense Key byte.
NOTE: The drive may accept a non-media command while DSC is 0 and if BUSY is
0.
