Dear All, I am a newbie in SCSI task management. When I read the sam-4 document, I got confusion about TASK and TASK_SET. Can anyone let me know the difference.
I think George Penokie (SAM-5 editor) is going through the SAM-5 (draft) and changing many usages of "TASK" to "COMMAND". So a TASK is usually a single SCSI command that is being processed by a logical unit. A TASK_SET is a set of SCSI commands that are being processed by a logical unit at a point of time. Notice that a task management function like ABORT TASK takes a I_T_L_Q nexus (identifying a command identifier within a logical unit) while ABORT TASK SET takes a I_T_L nexus (identifying a logical unit).
