Dominik Csapak 07a21616c2 tape: wait for calibration of LTO-9 tapes ... In case we run into a ready check timeout, query the drive, and increase the timeout to 2 hours and 5 minutes if it's calibrating (5 minutes headroom). This is effectively a generalization of commit 0b1a30aa ("tape: adapt format_media for LTO9+"), which increased the timeout for the format procedure, while this here covers also tape that were not explicitly formatted but get auto-formatted indirectly on the first action changing a fresh tape, like e.g. barcode labeling. The actual reason for this is that since LTO-9, initial loading of tapes into a drive can block up to 2 hours according to the spec. One can find the IBM and HP LTO SCSI references rather easily [0][1] As for the timeout, IBM says it only in their recommendations: > Although most optimizations will complete within 60 minutes some > optimizations may take up to 2 hours. And HP states: > Media initialization adds a variable amount of time to the > initialization process that typically takes between 20 minutes and > 2 hours. So it seems there not a hard limit and depends, but most ordinary setups should be covered and in my tests it always took around the 1 hour mark. 0: IBM LTO-9 https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/system/files/inline-files/LTO%20SCSI%20Reference_GA32-0928-05%20(EXTERNAL)_0.pdf 1: HP LTO-9 https://support.hpe.com/hpesc/public/docDisplay?docId=sd00001239en_us&page=GUID-D7147C7F-2016-0901-0921-000000000450.html Signed-off-by: Dominik Csapak <d.csapak@proxmox.com> Link: https://lore.proxmox.com/20250415114043.2389789-1-d.csapak@proxmox.com [TL: extend commit message with info that Dominik provided in a reply] Signed-off-by: Thomas Lamprecht <t.lamprecht@proxmox.com>		2025-04-16 14:28:04 +02:00
