Recovery threshold warning for Sony AIT-3 tape drive


Product

  Sony AIT-3 tape drive

Platform

 

Operating system

 


Error

 


Symptoms

 

When you are archiving or retrieving a job, sometimes there are many warnings that the recovery threshold of the AIT-3 tape drive is above the limit.


Cause

  The threshold settings for the AIT-3 drive read/write were incorrect in the Kodak archiver. The existing threshold was based on the DLT drive.

The DLT write limit is 50/GB, but the AIT-3 limit appears to be 1000/GB. The read limits are similar (12/GB vs ~11/GB).


Solution

 

There is a temporary solution.

Set the registry key to avoid too many warnings from Archiver:

\\hkey_local_machine\Software\Creo\Araxi\Settings\Default\Archiver,

SoftReadErrorThreshold = 11

SoftWriteErrorThreshold = 1000

SoftErrorWarningToErrorMultiplier = 10

IF the keys do not existing, create the key using DWord values.

This problem is expected to be fixed in Prinergy 4.0.

Permanent fix:
