608: ZTAP-EVT-REQUNKNOWN
A request was made to mount questionable tape on a tape device. The operator must 
approve the mounting of this tape.
Unconditional Tokens
Cause. A questionable tape is mounted on a tape device, either the tape that is 
mounted is written at a density that the tape drive does not support, or it has never 
been written before. The system cannot use automatic volume recognition (AVR) to 
read the tape. The operator must approve the mounting of this tape.
Effect. The system waits for a response. The tape remains online, though the 
MEDIACOM STATUS command will not show the tapes as being mounted on the 
drive.
