NAME¶
smp_rep_zone_man_pass - invoke REPORT ZONE MANAGER PASSWORD function
SYNOPSIS¶
smp_rep_zone_man_pass [
--fpass=FP] [
--help] [
--hex]
[
--interface=PARAMS] [
--phex] [
--raw] [
--report=RT] [
--sa=SAS_ADDR] [
--verbose] [
--version]
SMP_DEVICE[,N]
DESCRIPTION¶
Sends a SAS Management Protocol (SMP) REPORT ZONE MANAGER PASSWORD function
requests 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.
- -F, --fpass=FP
- where FP is the name of a file which the password
will be written to. The default action (in the absence of this option) is
to write the password to stdout.
- -h, --help
- output the usage message then exit.
- -H, --hex
- output the response (less the CRC field) in hexadecimal. To
only see the password in hexadecimal use the --phex option.
- -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, --phex
- Output the password in comma separated hexadecimal bytes.
In the absence of this option the password is output in ASCII surrounded
by single quotes. Note the hexadecimal bytes are output with a hex
indication (i.e. there is nos leading "0x" nor trailing
"h").
- -r, --raw
- send the response (less the CRC field) to stdout in binary.
All error messages are sent to stderr.
- -R, --report=RT
- set the 'report type' field in the SMP request. RT
may take these values: 0 for report the current zone manager password
(default); 1 is reserved; 2 for report the saved zone manager password; 3
for report the default zone manager password.
- -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 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.
The SMP REPORT ZONE MANAGER PASSWORD function was introduced in SAS-2 .
