Hi, There was a discussion recently about retrieving tape error counts at the end of a job; I actually do this already, using smartctl:
Alert Command = "sh -c 'smartctl -H -l error %c'" This retrieves any TapeAlert info and error counts from the tape drive: smartctl version 5.36 [i686-pc-linux-gnu] Copyright (C) 2002-6 Bruce Allen Home page is http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/ TapeAlert: OK Error counter log: Errors Corrected by Total Correction Gigabytes Total ECC rereads/ errors algorithm processed uncorrected fast | delayed rewrites corrected invocations [10^9 bytes] errors read: 0 0 0 0 0 0.000 0 write: 0 0 0 0 147 0.000 0 (Line wrapping might mess this up...)
