NAME

6       smp_rep_phy_err_log - invoke REPORT PHY ERROR LOG SMP function
7

SYNOPSIS

9       smp_rep_phy_err_log  [--help]  [--hex]  [--interface=PARAMS] [--phy=ID]
10       [--raw] [--sa=SAS_ADDR] [--verbose] [--version] [--zero] SMP_DEVICE[,N]
11

DESCRIPTION

13       Sends a SAS Serial Management Protocol (SMP) REPORT PHY ERROR LOG func‐
14       tion  request  to  an  SMP  target. The SMP target is identified by the
15       SMP_DEVICE and the SAS_ADDR. Depending on the interface,  the  SAS_ADDR
16       may  be  deduced from the SMP_DEVICE. The mpt interface uses SMP_DEVICE
17       to identify a HBA (an SMP initiator) and needs  the  additional  ,N  to
18       differentiate between HBAs if there are multiple present.
19

OPTIONS

21       Mandatory  arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as
22       well.
23
24       -h, --help
25              output the usage message then exit.
26
27       -H, --hex
28              output the response (less the CRC field) in hexadecimal.
29
30       -I, --interface=PARAMS
31              interface specific parameters. In this case  "interface"  refers
32              to  the  path through the operating system to the SMP initiator.
33              See the smp_utils man page for more information.
34
35       -p, --phy=ID
36              phy identifier. ID is a value between 0 and 254. Default is 0.
37
38       -r, --raw
39              send the response (less the CRC field) to stdout in binary.  All
40              error messages are sent to stderr.
41
42       -s, --sa=SAS_ADDR
43              specifies  the  SAS  address of the SMP target device. Typically
44              this is an expander. This  option  may  not  be  needed  if  the
45              SMP_DEVICE  has the target's SAS address within it. The SAS_ADDR
46              is in decimal but most SAS addresses are shown  in  hexadecimal.
47              To  give  a  number in hexadecimal either prefix it with '0x' or
48              put a trailing 'h' on it.
49
50       -v, --verbose
51              increase the verbosity of the output. Can be used multiple times
52
53       -V, --version
54              print the version string and then exit.
55
56       -z, --zero
57              zero the Allocated Response Length field in  the  request.  This
58              option  also zeros the Request Length field in the request. This
59              is required for strict SAS-1.1 compliance. However  this  option
60              should  not  be  given  in  SAS-2  and  later; if it is given an
61              abridged response may result.
62

NOTES

64       Similar information is maintained for SAS SSP target phys  (e.g.  on  a
65       SAS  disk). It can be obtained from the Protocol Specific Port log page
66       with the sg_logs utility.
67
68       Similar information may be obtained for SAS initiator phys (e.g.  on  a
69       SAS  HBA). As an example in Linux 2.6.28 error information can be found
70       in this directory /sys/class/sas_phy/phy-4:0 (for the phy 0 in SCSI/SAS
71       host 4).
72
73       Similar  information  may  be  obtained for SATA device phys (e.g. on a
74       SATA disk). If there is a SAT layer between OS and the SATA device then
75       the sg_sat_phy_event utility can fetch the information.
76

CONFORMING TO

78       The  SMP  REPORT  PHY ERROR LOG function was introduced in SAS-1 .  The
79       "Expander change count" field was added in SAS-2 .
