Appending to 8200 Format Tapes

If a tape has already been written in 8200 format and you want to

write additional data on the tape, follow these steps:

1. Load the data cartridge in the CTS.

2. Issue a READ (08h) or SPACE (11h) command to move away

from LBOT and to a legal position for appending.

Note: Legal positions for appending in 8200 format are the end

of data (blank tape) or at the beginning of a long

filemark.

3. Issue a WRITE or WRITE FILEMARKS command to write the

additional data. The CTS automatically sets the Density Code to

8200 format.

Note: The WTF bit in the MODE SENSE data indicates that the

CTS is writing in 8200 format (001b).

Reading 8200 Format Tapes

To use the CTS to read an 8200 format tape, follow these steps:

1. Load the data cartridge in the CTS.

2. Issue a READ command to read the data. The CTS automatically

determines the tape’s format.
