Verify Drive Calibration Status

STA may be unable to calibrate all drives within the media validation pool due to a lack of calibration media or drive issues. Verify the status of the validation drives and address any issues by adding media or removing the drive from the pool.

  1. In the left navigation, expand Tape System Hardware and select Drives Overview.
  2. From the Templates drop-down, select STA-Drive-MV.
  3. Within the table, review the MV Calibration State for each drive.
