scsi (sg) device status vs FC connectivity

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



(I hope this list is the right place to ask SG Driver related question ..)

Background: A FC cable-pull is simulated by disabling the FC switch (Brocade) port.


While /sys/class/fc_host/hostx/port_state might confirm the FC connectivity is missing,

/proc/scsi/sg/devices will show the scsi device to be 'online'.

My goal is to be able to return an error to the application, should a cable-pull happen.

Is there a way to be able to tweak this behavior where the scsi driver is able to look at port events,
and possibly return errors during read/write operations? 

Thanks,
Raj.
