NAME
smp_rep_broadcast - invoke REPORT BROADCAST SMP function
SYNOPSIS
smp_rep_broadcast [--broadcast=BT] [--help] [--hex] [--inter‐
face=PARAMS] [--raw] [--sa=SAS_ADDR] [--verbose] [--version]
SMP_DEVICE[,N]
DESCRIPTION
Sends a SAS Management Protocol (SMP) REPORT BROADCAST function request
to a SMP target. The SMP target is identified by the SMP_DEVICE and the
--sa=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.
-b, --broadcast=BT
BT is the broadcast type, an integer in the range 0 (default) to
15. Broadcast (Change) corresponds to 0. Other known broadcast
types are listed in the NOTES section. BT may be decimal
(default) or hexadecimal prefixed by '0x' (or '0X') or with a
'h' (or 'H') suffix.
-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. The mpt
interface needs this option and it will typically be an
expander's SAS address. The SAS_ADDR is in decimal but most SAS
addresses are shown in hexadecimal. To give a number in hexa‐
decimal 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.
NOTES
The following is a list of broadcast types:
0 Broadcast (Change)
1 Broadcast (Reserved change 0)
2 Broadcast (Reserved change 1)
3 Broadcast (SES)
4 Broadcast (Expander)
5 Broadcast (Asynchronous event)
6 Broadcast (Reserved 3)
7 Broadcast (Reserved 4)
8 Broadcast (Zone activate)
The remaining zone types (9 to 15) may be issued by the ZONED BROADCAST
function.
