This section contains code descriptions for possible I/O error messages from the Tivoli Storage Manager server for the AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, Linux, and Windows(R) operating systems.
I do see under Alarm Definitions that 'Host storage status' is enabled for this host. If I go to Monitor - Hardware Health for the host, I do see a Disk Bay 1 sensor with an unknown status, but I had to 1) navigate to this location and 2) expand to open and see a message titled 'Assert + Drive Slot Drive Fault' which I assume is related. Hello, thank you for posting in the Lenovo forums. What type of PCI adapters do you have in the machine? Coupld you please list the FRU PN for us? Please make sure and update to the latest uEFI, IMM and Firmware/driver of any adapters Adapter on your x3550-m5. Ensure drive is powered on. Ensure the drive shows good status through the drive status window. Check the tape cartridge used in the last operation for damage. Reactivate drive using control panel maintenance menu and reseat drive. Disk Drive Bay 1 Drive 3 0: Predictive Failure - Assert Warning In the event long it shows: Device naa.6782bcb60b44 0f0a867ec7 performance has deteriorated. I/O latency increased from average value of 3035 microseconds to 578977 microseconds. Warning 8/04/2013 1:13:13 PM esxi.domain.local.

The code values will appear as hexadecimal values in the Data area of the Windows Event Log. The Event Log omits the 0x prefix for the displayed information.
In the Windows Event Log, the entries with source AdsmScsi are produced by the AdsmScsi device driver. In these entries, byte 3E is the sense key, byte 3D is the ASC, and byte 3C is the ASCQ. (This is also true of entries logged by any of the Windows tape device drivers.) If byte 44 is 'ef', the error logged is not a check condition error. Examples of such errors are command timeouts or device selection errors.
