This is the first issue, GENERIC DK, so not a recognized VMS device [for
this VMS version]...

It is contained in the above fields. You will need the manufacturer data
for the drive you are using, and you should be able to decode the
extended sense data into something meaningful.
The text, well, I would be dubious of its accuracy as you've no

"Digital Storage Architecture" compliant device would.
