+Description:
+		Shows the total amount of time spent waiting for all I/O
+                to and from the tape drive to complete. This includes all
+                reads, writes, and other SCSI commands issued to the tape
+                drive. An example of other SCSI commands would be tape
+                movement such as a rewind when a rewind tape device is
+                closed. This item is measured in nanoseconds.
+
+                To determine the amount of time spent waiting for other I/O
+                to complete subtract read_ns and write_ns from this value.

+Description:
