Notes:
v In order to support Ultrium 5 or later tape drives, all node cards in the library must be model xx3-equivalent
node cards. For node cards in model xx2 frames, this requires a xx3 model conversion OR the enhanced node
card(s) feature (FC 1700 or 1701).
v The library rejects any command to move unsupported media to a drive and returns a sense key of 5 and an
additional sense code/additional sense code qualifier of 30/00.
