Remarks

Once the driver detects an early warning signal, it rejects any write commands until it receives a Reset Queue command from the application. After receiving the Reset Queue command, the driver will write only once before it needs to receive another Reset Queue. This call ensures that the driver will at least write one more request before running out of tape.

This operation also restarts the queue for the device under the NWPA architecture.
