It is often used for SAF-TE targets. These are enclosure services processors, here is a tool to look at them: http://oss.metaparadigm.com/safte-monitor > scsi 7:0:1:0: Attached scsi generic sg6 type 0 > scsi 7:0:3:0: Attached scsi generic sg7 type 0 > sd 8:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg8 type 0 > scsi 7:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg9 type 0 > scsi 7:0:2:0: Attached scsi generic sg10 type 0 Type 0 is for disks, strange that sd didn't pick up those devices on host 7. Could you fetch the sg3_utils package, build it and try 'sg_inq /dev/sg6'. The output may be interesting.
