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