That is the ability to allow certain SCSI command through to the disk and in particular I recall it being used for some sort of fencing operation, but the details escape my memory right now. In order to use 'sgio' though you have to either have device='lun' for disk type='block'/'network' or 'volume' (when using a storage pool).
