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