Utility Options ===============
--echoCommandLine
Echo the command line entered into the utility on the screen.
--enableLegacyUSBPassthrough
Only use this option on old USB or IEEE1394 (Firewire) products that do not
otherwise work with the tool. This option will enable a trial and error method
that attempts sending various ATA Identify commands through vendor specific means.
Because of this, certain products that may respond in unintended ways since they
may interpret these commands differently than the bridge chip the command was
designed for.
--forceATA
Using this option will force the current drive to be treated as a ATA drive. Only
ATA commands will be used to talk to the drive.
--forceATADMA
(SATA Only)
Using this option will force the tool to issue SAT commands to ATA device using the
protocol set to DMA whenever possible (on DMA commands). This option can be
combined with --forceATA
--forceATAPIO
(SATA Only)
Using this option will force the tool to issue PIO commands to ATA device when
possible. This option can be combined with --forceATA
--forceATAUDMA
(SATA Only)
Using this option will force the tool to issue SAT commands to ATA device using the
protocol set to UDMA whenever possible (on DMA commands). This option can be
combined with --forceATA
--forceSCSI
Using this option will force the current drive to be treated as a SCSI drive. Only
SCSI commands will be used to talk to the drive.
-h, --help

bugs/suggestions to seaboard@seagate.com. Include the output of --version
information in the email.
--license
Display the Seagate End User License Agreement (EULA).
--modelMatch [model Number]
Use this option to run on all drives matching the provided model number. This
option will provide a closest match although an exact match is preferred. Ex: ST500
will match ST500LM0001
--noBanner
Use this option to suppress the text banner that displays each time openSeaChest is
run.
--onlyFW [firmware revision]
Use this option to run on all drives matching the provided firmware revision. This
option will only do an exact match.
--onlySeagate
Use this option to match only Seagate drives for the options provided
-q, --quiet
Run openSeaChest_Reservations in quiet mode. This is the same as -v 0 or --verbose
0
-v [0-4], --verbose [0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4]
Show verbose information. Verbosity levels are: 0 - quiet 1 - default 2 - command
descriptions 3 - command descriptions and values 4 - command descriptions, values,
and data buffers Example: -v 3 or --verbose 3
-V, --version
Show openSeaChest_Reservations version and copyright information & exit
Utility Arguments =================
-d, --device [deviceHandle | all]
Use this option with most commands to specify the device handle on which to perform
an operation. Example: /dev/sg<#> To run across all devices detected in the system,
use the "all" argument instead of a device handle. Example: -d all NOTE: The "all"
argument is handled by running the
specified options on each drive detected in the
OS sequentially. For parallel operations, please use a script opening a separate
instance for each device handle.
-F, --scanFlags [option list]
Use this option to control the output from scan with the options listed below.
Multiple options can be combined.
ata - show only ATA (SATA) devices
usb - show only USB devices scsi - show only SCSI (SAS) devices nvme - show only
NVMe devices interfaceATA - show devices on an ATA interface interfaceUSB - show
devices on a USB interface interfaceSCSI - show devices on a SCSI or SAS interface
interfaceNVME = show devices on an NVMe interface sd - show sd device handles
sgtosd - show the sd and sg device handle mapping
-i, --deviceInfo
Show information and features for the storage device
--llInfo
Dump low-level information about the device to assist with debugging.
-s, --scan
Scan the system and list all storage devices with logical /dev/sg<#> assignments.
Shows model, serial and firmware numbers. If your device is not listed on a scan
immediately after booting, then wait 10 seconds and run it again.
-S, --Scan
This option is the same as --scan or -s, however it will also perform a low level
rescan to pick up other devices. This low level rescan may wake devices from low
power states and may cause the OS to re-enumerate them. Use this option when a
device is plugged in and not discovered in a normal scan. NOTE: A low-level rescan
may not be available on all interfaces or all OSs. The low-level rescan is not
guaranteed to find additional devices in the system when the device is unable to
come to a ready state.
--SATInfo
Displays SATA device information on any interface using both SCSI Inquiry / VPD /
Log reported data (translated according to SAT) and the ATA Identify / Log reported
data.
--testUnitReady
Issues a SCSI Test Unit Ready command and displays the status. If the drive is not
ready, the sense key, asc, ascq, and fru will be displayed and a human readable
translation from the SPC spec will be displayed if one is available.
--fastDiscovery
Use this option
to issue a fast scan on the specified drive.
--prAllTargetPorts
(NVMe & SAS only)
Use this option when registering a new key to specify that it applies to all target
ports. NOTE: Not all devices will support this option
--prClear
(NVMe & SAS only)
Use this option to clear all reservations using a key that is specified by the
--prKey option. The specified key must already be registered with the device.
--prKey [key]
(NVMe & SAS Only)
Use this option to specify the key to use for persistent reservation options. When
registering a key, this provides the value expected for your use. It should
continue to be used through all persistent reseve operations until unregistered or
cleared.
--prPersistThroughPowerLoss
(NVMe & SAS only)
Use this option when registering a new key to activate the persist through power
loss capability. NOTE: Not all devices will support this option
--prPreempt [reservation key to preempt]
(NVMe & SAS only)
Use this option to preempt another reservation using a registration key
that is specified by the --prKey option.
The specified key must already be registered with the device. This is used to
remove a reservation from another initiator and start a new one using the specified
registration key. --prType must also be provided to specify the type of reservation
that should be active once the preempt has completed. Use with the
--prPreemptAbort option to cause the preempt to abort all outstanding commands to
the previous reservation holder.
--prPreemptAbort
(NVMe & SAS only)
Use this option to cause a preempt to abort commands to the previous reservation
holder. This must be used in combination with the --prPreempt option in order to
specify the key to preempt.
--prRegister
(NVMe & SAS only)
Use this option to register a new key as specified by the --prKey option. Combine
this with the following options as needed: --prAllTargetPorts
--prPersistThroughPowerLoss --prRegisterIgnore
--prRegisterIgnore
(NVMe & SAS only)
Use this option when registering a new key to instruct the device to ignore any
previous registration key that has already been registered from the same initiator
NOTE: Not all devices will support this option
--prRelease
(NVMe & SAS only)
Use this option to release reservation using a key that is specified by the --prKey
option. The specified key must already be registered with the device and must have
an active reservation that can be released. Use the --prType option to specifiy
the reservation type to release.
--prReserve
(NVMe & SAS only)
Use this option to acquire a reservation using a key that is specified by the
--prKey option. The specified key must already be registered with the device. Use
the --prType option to specifiy the reservation type to acquire.
--prType [wrex | ex | wrexro | exro | wrexar | exar]
(NVMe and SAS only)
This option specifies the type of reservation to hold. This is required for
acquiring, preempting, and releasing reservations. Available reservation types:
wrex - write exclusive
ex - exclusive access
wrexro - write exclusive, registrants only
exro - exclusive access, registrants only wrexar - write exclusive, all
registrants exar - exclusive access, all registrants
--prUnregister
(NVMe & SAS only)
Use this option to unregister a key that is specified by the --prKey option.
--showFullPReservationInfo
(NVMe & SAS Only)
This options reads the persistent reservation full information (registrations and
reservations) and prints it to the screen.
--showPRegistrationKeys (NVMe & SAS Only)
This options reads the persistent reservation registration keys and prints it to
the screen.
--showPReservations
(NVMe & SAS Only)
This options reads the persistent reservation reservations and prints it to the
screen.
--showPReservationCapabilties
