Description
What does the log_scsi_error messages with sense code 70 mean

Physical tape not in library (off-site storage) or physical library was slow/delayed in mounting tape for some reason.

Steps to Follow
The scsi errors (log_scsi_error) and the sense code (70) just mean that there is no tape in the physical drive. It will be retried until physical drive has tape mounted or until retry limit is reached.
