Ubuntu Manpage: smp_ena_dis_zoning - invoke ENABLE DISABLE ZONING SMP function

NAME

       smp_ena_dis_zoning - invoke ENABLE DISABLE ZONING SMP function

SYNOPSIS

       smp_ena_dis_zoning  [--disable]  [--ena-dis=ED]  [--expected=EX]  [--help]  [--hex]  [--interface=PARAMS]
       [--raw] [--sa=SAS_ADDR] [--save=SAV] [--verbose] [--version] SMP_DEVICE[,N]

DESCRIPTION

       Sends a SAS Serial Management Protocol (SMP) ENABLE DISABLE ZONING function request to an SMP target. The
       SMP  target  is  identified  by  the  SMP_DEVICE  and  the --sa=SAS_ADDR. Depending on the interface, the
       SAS_ADDR may be deduced from the SMP_DEVICE. The mpt interface uses SMP_DEVICE to identify a HBA (an  SMP
       initiator) and needs the additional ,N to differentiate between HBAs if there are multiple present.

       If  neither  --disable  nor  --ena-dis=ED  options  are  given then enable zoning (i.e. "--ena-dis=1") is
       assumed.

       This function does not change the state of the current zoning enabled flag (as seen in the REPORT GENERAL
       response). Such a state change will occur on a subsequent invocation of the ZONE ACTIVATE function.

OPTIONS

Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as well.

-d, --disable
set the 'enable disable zoning' field in the SMP request to 2 which will disable zoning.

-e, --ena-dis=ED
set the 'enable disable zoning' field in the SMP request. ED may take these values: 0 for no
change, 1 for enable zoning (default) and 2 for disable zoning. If this option and the --disable
option are both given then they cannot contradict one another.

-E, --expected=EX
set the 'expected expander change count' field in the SMP request. The value EX is from 0 to
65535 inclusive with 0 being the default value. When EX is greater than zero then if the value
doesn't match the expander change count of the SMP target (i.e. the expander) when the request
arrives then the target ignores the request and sets a function result of "invalid expander change
count" in the response.

-h, --help
output the usage message then exit.

-H, --hex
output the response (less the CRC field) in hexadecimal.

-I, --interface=PARAMS
interface specific parameters. In this case "interface" refers to the path through the operating
system to the SMP initiator. See the smp_utils man page for more information.

-r, --raw
send the response (less the CRC field) to stdout in binary. All error messages are sent to stderr.

-s, --sa=SAS_ADDR
specifies the SAS address of the SMP target device. The mpt interface needs this option and it
will typically be an expander's SAS address. The SAS_ADDR is in decimal but most SAS addresses are
shown in hexadecimal. To give a number in hexadecimal either prefix it with '0x' or put a
trailing 'h' on it.

-S, --save=SAV
set the 'save' field in the SMP request. SAV may take these values: 0 for updating the shadow
values (default), 1 for updating the saved values, 2 for updating shadow values and if available
the saved values, 3 for updating both saved and shadow values.

-v, --verbose
increase the verbosity of the output. Can be used multiple times.

-V, --version
print the version string and then exit.

CONFORMING TO

       The SMP ENABLE DISABLE ZONING function was introduced in SAS-2 .
