REQUEST SENSE (03h)
Notes:
The sense data is sent from the library to the tape drive, along with status, over
the ADI when the requested SCSI command is completed by the library.
When sense data is requested, the tape drive may return this status or choose to
override it with its own.
For additional information, see:
The tape drive Product Manual

18.1 ABOUT THIS COMMAND
The REQUEST SENSE command requests that the library transfer sense data
to the initiator. The library provides sense data in only the Error Code 70h,
extended sense data format. The library returns a total of 20 bytes of sense
data to the initiator.
The sense data is constructed and saved on a per-initiator and requested LUN
basis. The library preserves sense data for all initiators until the data is
retrieved by the REQUEST SENSE command or until the library receives any
other command for the same I_T_L nexus (initiator-target-LUN connection).
Sense data is available under the following circumstances:
