SUMMARY
Tape imports may fail with input/output errors.
ISSUE
Tape imports may fail with input/output errors.
RESOLUTION
A "rewind_wait_time" master.ini variable was added in release 10.2. This allows the tape drive enough time to position itself and indicate a ready state before the import job attempts to read it.
CAUSE
The import job may prematurely attempt to read a tape device that is still positioning itself, resulting in input/output errors and job failure.
