NAME

       smp_rep_manufacturer - invoke REPORT MANUFACTURER INFORMATION SMP function

SYNOPSIS

       smp_rep_manufacturer   [--help]   [--hex]   [--interface=PARAMS]   [--raw]   [--sa=SAS_ADDR]  [--verbose]
       [--version] [--zero] SMP_DEVICE[,N]

DESCRIPTION

       Sends a SAS Serial Management Protocol (SMP) REPORT MANUFACTURER INFORMATION function request to  an  SMP
       target.  The SMP target is identified by the SMP_DEVICE and the 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.

OPTIONS

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

       -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. Typically this is an expander. This option may
              not be needed if the SMP_DEVICE has the target's SAS address within it. 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.

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

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

       -z, --zero
              zero  the  Allocated  Response  Length  field  in the request. This is required for strict SAS-1.1
              compliance. However this option should not be given in SAS-2 and later; if it is given an abridged
              response may result.

CONFORMING TO

       The  SMP  REPORT  MANUFACTURER  function  was introduced in SAS-1, with small additions in SAS-1.1 . This
       function remains unaltered in SAS-2 and SPL-1.
