This command should return messages similar to the following if successful:

3: Premature process termination with fatal errors or diagnostics
Total Errors = 1 Total Warnings = 0
If system error 190 or 224 occurs, check the cable connections and confirm that they are
attached to the proper location as specified by the LOCATION parameter in the ADD command.
It is also recommended that you check the port on VTS to confirm that it is in the proper
location based on the port number on which the VTD is configured. Finally, check that the
SCSI converter is powered on and functioning properly.
If you need to stop a virtual tape drive at any time, such as if a problem occurs on the host or
you want to move the location of the connection to the host, enter the following command on
the NonStop server:
SCF STOP TAPE $VTD
Ensure that no virtual tapes are loaded in the virtual tape drive before issuing this command.
