Tape volume overwrite protection during error recovery |
摘要 |
In one embodiment, a method includes detecting an error while writing data to a tape volume. The method further includes repositioning the tape volume for recovering from the error, and receiving, after the repositioning, at least a portion of the data for rewriting the at least a portion of the data to the tape volume. Further, the method includes determining, after the repositioning, a current position of the tape volume. Additionally, the method includes determining, based on the current position of the tape volume, whether the rewrite to the tape volume is allowed. |
