Hi,

We have a program that is testing if the correct tape is in the drive before we launch the backup procedure.

It occurs that the drive's door is left open so the job can't test for tape cartridge.

After 10 minutes or so, we get an error in QSYSOPR (CPA401D) stating that there is a problem with the drive and the reason is "Library door is open".

So we tried to trap this error in our program and could not find a way to implement a safe error handling for this case.

Anyone ever received this error? If so, how do you manage thsi problem?

I thought about an iMonitor but they often get stopped for no reason. So I was wondering if anybody found a way to monitor this kind of behavior.

I also thought about making sure the door is closed but I would not want to be forced to mother our techs. I prefer to assume they did their job and this incident is only due to some special reason or the new guy.

Thanks,
