46.Sh DESCRIPTION
47NOTE: This driver has not been ported from
48.Bx 4.4
49yet.
50.Pp
51The
52.Tn TM-03
53transport combination provides a standard tape drive
54interface as described in
55.Xr mtio 4 .

71.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
72.Bl -diag
73.It tu%d: no write ring.
74An attempt was made to write on the tape drive
75when no write ring was present; this message is written on the terminal of
76the user who tried to access the tape.
77.Pp
78.It tu%d: not online.
79An attempt was made to access the tape while it
80was offline; this message is written on the terminal of the user
81who tried to access the tape.
82.Pp
83.It tu%d: can't change density in mid-tape.
84An attempt was made to write
85on a tape at a different density than is already recorded on the tape.
86This message is written on the terminal of the user who tried to switch
87the density.
88.Pp
89.It "tu%d: hard error bn%d mbsr=%b er=%b ds=%b."
90A tape error occurred
91at block
92.Em bn ;
93the ht error register and drive status register are
94printed in octal with the bits symbolically decoded.  Any error is
95fatal on non-raw tape; when possible the driver will have retried
96the operation which failed several times before reporting the error.
