SMP_REP_PHY_SATA(8)		   SMP_UTILS		   SMP_REP_PHY_SATA(8)

NAME
       smp_rep_phy_sata - invoke REPORT PHY SATA SMP function

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

DESCRIPTION
       Sends  a SAS Management Protocol (SMP) REPORT PHY SATA request function
       to a SMP target. The SMP target is identified by the SMP_DEVICE and the
       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.

       -a, --affiliation=AC
	      where AC is the affiliation context relative identifier that  is
	      placed in request (new in sas2r08). Defaults to 0.

       -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.

       -p, --phy=ID
	      phy identifier. ID is a value between 0 and 254. Default is 0.

       -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.  Typically
	      this  is	an  expander.  This  option  may  not be needed if the
	      SMP_DEVICE has the target's SAS address within it. The  SAS_ADDR
	      is  in  decimal but most SAS addresses are shown in hexadecimal.
	      To give a number in hexadecimal 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.

       -z, --zero
	      zero  the	 Allocated  Response Length field in the request. This
	      option also zeros the Request Length field in the request.  This
	      is  required  for strict SAS-1.1 compliance. However this option
	      should not be given in SAS-2  and	 later;	 if  it	 is  given  an
	      abridged response may result.

EXAMPLES
       See "Examples" section in http://sg.danny.cz/sg/smp_utils.html

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