The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.

In this year's audit letter, the auditors said that the tapes that we use for backup are not verified. We have a 6384 Model 001 (1/4" tape cartridge) on a model 520.
I have been searching both Midrange, the InfoCenter, and Redbooks/Manuals trying to find out if the tapes are verified. Can't find anything, but thought one of you might know and, hopefully, point me to a URL that I can use in my reply.
I suspect that the tapes are verified simply because the PRTERRLOG report shows temporary and permanent errors. I print these at the end of each week, and only see a small number of temporary errors (1 or 2 per tape). Reasonably it seems to me that the system would not know if it had an error unless it was checking (verifying) what it wrote.
Thanks.
