SCSI Tape Drive degraded.
The SCSI tape drive has degraded.
This could be caused by the following:
Tape Drive Cleaning Required trap. The Insight Agent has detected a tape drive that needs to have a cleaning tape inserted and run. This will cause the tape drive heads to be cleaned.
Tape Drive Cleaning Tape Needs Replacing. The agent has detected that an autoloader tape unit has a cleaning tape that has been fully used and therefore needs to be replaced with a new cleaning tape.
Clean the tape drive.
