completed successfully,

CHECK CONDITION is reported, with a sense key of

UNIT ATTENTION and additional sense of 2800h (not ready to ready

transition).

■ If the Load was issued by the current host and failed, CHECK CONDITION is

attempted on behalf of the current host.

unloading (for example, as a result of pressing the eject button), it will be

queued until the unload is complete.

■ If an unload request is received while there is no tape present, or if a tape

is present but not loaded and medium removal is prevented,

the front panel.
