sg_rtpg(8) - Linux man page

Name

sg_rtpg - sends a SCSI REPORT TARGET PORT GROUPS command

Synopsis

sg_rtpg [--decode] [--help] [--hex] [--raw] [--verbose] [--version] DEVICE

Description

Send a SCSI REPORT TARGET PORT GROUPS command to DEVICE and outputs the response.

Target port group access is described in SPC-3 found at www.t10.org in section 5.8 (in rev 21c dated 2005/1/15). The Report Target Port Groups command is also described in that document.

Options

Arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as well.

-d, --decode: decodes the status code and asymmetric access state from each target port group descriptor returned. The default action is not to decode these values.
-h, --help: output the usage message then exit.
-H, --hex: output response in hex (rather than partially or fully decode it).
-r, --raw: output response in binary to stdout.
-v, --verbose: increase the level of verbosity, (i.e. debug output).
-V, --version: print the version string and then exit.

Notes

The Report Target Port Groups command should be supported whenever the TPGS bits in a standard INQUIRY response are greater than zero. [View with sg_inq utility.]

Exit Status

The exit status of sg_rtpg is 0 when it is successful. Otherwise see the sg3_utils(8) man page.
