OK, I was curious enough to try this again: interrupt a FORMAT command,
now the disk responds with ASC=0x31 ASCQ=0x0 again. However, the --wait
option (sg_format version: 1.17 20090324) doesn't do anything:
v40z1# sg_format --format --wait -vvv /dev/sdb
open /dev/sdb with flags=0x802
inquiry cdb: 12 00 00 00 24 00
duration=0 ms
SEAGATE ST373307LC 0007 peripheral_type: disk [0x0]
PROTECT=0
mode sense (10) cdb: 5a 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 fc 00
duration=0 ms
sense buffer empty
requested 252 bytes but got 0 bytes
MODE SENSE (10) command failed
I can leave the disk in this state if you want to play around some more
and will bring back the disk in a usable state in a few days then.
Thanks,
Christian.
