NAME

       Sun_MP_SendScsiCmd - send a SCSI command to a logical unit

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lMPAPI [ library... ]
       #include <mpapi.h>
       #include <mpapi_sun.h>

       MP_STATUS MP_SendScsiCmd(MP_OID oid, struct uscsi_cmd *cmd);

PARAMETERS

       oid    The object ID of the logical unit path.

       cmd    A uscsi_cmd structure. See uscsi(7I).

DESCRIPTION

       The  Sun_MP_SendScsiCmd()  function  sends  a SCSI command on a specific path to a logical unit. This function is applicable only to an OID
       whose MP_PLUGIN_PROPERTIES driverVendor, as defined by the Multipath Management API, is equal to "Sun Microsystems". See  MP_GetPluginProp-
       erties(3MPAPI) and Multipath Management API Version 1.0.

RETURN VALUES

       MP_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER

	   The	pProps	is  null  or  specifies  a  memory  area   to	which  data  cannot  be written, or the oid has a type subfield other than
	   MP_OBJECT_TYPE_PLUGIN.

       MP_STATUS_INVALID_OBJECT_TYPE

	   The oid does not specify any valid object type. This  is most  likely  to happen if an uninitialized object ID is passed to the API.

       MP_STATUS_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND

	   The oid owner ID or object sequence number is invalid.

       MP_STATUS_SUCCESS

	   The operation is successful.
