Description: External Tape Drive Current Data Transfer Speed.
The following values are defined:
other(1) The agent is unable to determine the current negotiated data transfer speed for this drive.
asynchronous(2) The negotiated data transfer speed for this drive is asynchronous.
fast(3) The negotiated data transfer speed for this drive is 10 million transfers per second).
ultra(4) The negotiated data transfer speed for this drive is 20 million transfers per second.
ultra2(5) The negotiated data transfer speed for this drive is 40 million transfers per second.
ultra3(6) The negotiated data transfer speed for this drive is 80 million transfers per second.
What is cpqFcTapeDriveCurrentSpeed?
This enumerated value reports the currently negotiated SCSI data transfer speed for the tape drive, ranging from asynchronous through ultra2 or ultra3 depending on drive capability. An admin checks this to confirm the tape drive is negotiating its full rated speed, since a lower-than-expected negotiated speed directly slows down backup and restore windows. For example, a drive capable of ultra2(5) reporting only fast(3) would point to a cabling issue degrading throughput during backups.
