Handling MTC device errors

In the event of errors in the MTC device, the BS2000 device management facility initiates unloading and issues a message to use a different device (NKVT014). Such remount situations arise, for example, in the case of hardware malfunctions affecting the devices.

The objective of ROBAR is to maintain unmanned archive operation even in the event of problems.

Action sequences defined in the ROBAR rule files permit automatic handling of I/O errors. The system can thus deal with any errors that may arise, such as device malfunctions, without external assistance.
