I have a number of Exabye M2 tapes in which TSM (5.1) is reporting several read errors (in one case as many as 15,000 errors). Also some tapes report 1 or 2 write errors. According to Exabyte the 8mm AME tape logevity is rated around 20,000 passes. Is there a report within Tivoli, that will help me determine the number of passes on a particular volume?
