Abstract
A method and system for diagnosing tape cartridge and tape drive errors at a customer site and a tape cartridge used in the method and the system is disclosed herein. The tape cartridge includes a cartridge housing; a cartridge reel that is rotatably secured to the cartridge housing; tape media that is secured to the cartridge reel; and non-volatile cartridge memory comprising initial calibrated tape cartridge error data stored thereon, the initial calibrated tape cartridge error data comprising error information for a new state of the tape cartridge prior to the tape cartridge being used in an end-user tape drive so that subsequent errors associated with the tape cartridge and/or the end-user tape drive are able to be compared with the initial calibrated tape cartridge error data to determine whether the subsequent errors are associated with the tape cartridge, the end-user tape drive, or both the cartridge and the drive.
