SYNOPSIS

9       smp_rep_phy_sata    [--affiliation=AC]   [--help]   [--hex]   [--inter‐
10       face=PARAMS] [--phy=ID] [--raw] [--sa=SAS_ADDR] [--verbose] [--version]
11       SMP_DEVICE[,N]

DESCRIPTION

14       Sends  a SAS Management Protocol (SMP) REPORT PHY SATA request function
15       to a SMP target. The SMP target is identified by the SMP_DEVICE and the
16       SAS_ADDR.  Depending on the interface, the SAS_ADDR may be deduced from
17       the SMP_DEVICE. With one interface there is one SMP_DEVICE per  machine
18       so  the  SMP_DEVICE,N syntax is needed to differentiate between HBAs if
19       there are multiple present.
20
21       -a, --affiliation=AC
22              where AC is the affiliation context relative identifier that  is
23              placed in request (new in sas2r08). Defaults to 0.
24
25       -h, --help
26              output the usage message then exit.
27
28       -H, --hex
29              output the response in hexadecimal.
30
31       -I, --interface=PARAMS
32              interface  specific  parameters. In this case "interface" refers
33              to the path through the operating system to the  SMP  initiator.
34              See the smp_utils man page for more information.
35
36       -p, --phy=ID
37              phy identifier. ID is a value between 0 and 127. Default is 0.
38
39       -r, --raw
40              send  the  response  to stdout in binary. All error messages are
41              sent to stderr.
42
43       -s, --sa=SAS_ADDR
44              specifies the SAS address of the SMP  target  device.  Typically
45              this  is  an  expander.  This  option  may  not be needed if the
46              SMP_DEVICE has the target's SAS address within it. The  SAS_ADDR
47              is  in  decimal but most SAS addresses are shown in hexadecimal.
48              To give a number in hexadecimal either prefix it  with  '0x'  or
49              put a trailing 'h' on it.
50
51       -v, --verbose
52              increase the verbosity of the output. Can be used multiple times
53
54       -V, --version
55              print the version string and then exit.

CONFORMING TO

58       The  SMP  REPORT  PHY  SATA  function  was  introduced  in SAS-1 .  The
59       "Expander change count", "STP I_T  nexus  loss  occurred"  and  several
60       other fields were added in SAS-2 .
