NAME

     getencstat -- get SCSI Environmental Services Device enclosure status

SYNOPSIS

     getencstat [-v] device [device ...]

DESCRIPTION

     getencstat gets summary and detailed SCSI Environmental Services (or SAF-TE) device enclosure status.  The overall status is printed out.	If
     the overall status is considered okay, nothing else is printed out (unless the -v option is used).

     A SCSI Environmental Services device enclosure may be either in the state of being OK, or in one or more of the states of INFORMATIONAL,
     NON-CRITICAL, CRITICAL, or UNRECOVERABLE states.  These overall states reflect a summary of the states of each object within such a device
     (such as power supplies or disk drives).

     With the -v option, the status of all objects within the device is printed, whether OK or not.  Along with the status of each object is the
     object identifier.

     The user may then use setencstat(8) to try and clear overall device status, or may use setobjstat(8) to set specific object status.

NAME

     ses -- SCSI Environmental Services Driver

SYNOPSIS

     ses* at scsibus? target? lun?

DESCRIPTION

     The ses driver provides support for all SCSI devices of the environmental services class that are attached to the system through a supported
     SCSI Host Adapter, as well as emulated support for SAF-TE (SCSI Accessible Fault Tolerant Enclosures).  The environmental services class gen-
     erally are enclosure devices that provide environmental information such as number of power supplies (and state), temperature, device slots,
     and so on.

     A SCSI Host adapter must also be separately configured into the system before a SCSI Environmental Services device can be configured.

IOCTLS

     The following ioctl(2) calls apply to SES devices.  They are defined in the header file <scsipi/ses.h> (q.v.).

     SESIOC_GETNOBJ	Used to find out how many SES objects are driven by this particular device instance.

     SESIOC_GETOBJMAP	Read, from the kernel, an array of SES objects which contains the object identifier, which sub-enclosure it is in, and the
			SES type of the object.

     SESIOC_GETENCSTAT	Get the overall enclosure status.

     SESIOC_SETENCSTAT	Set the overall enclosure status.

     SESIOC_GETOBJSTAT	Get the status of a particular object.

     SESIOC_SETOBJSTAT	Set the status of a particular object.

     SESIOC_GETTEXT	Get the associated help text for an object (not yet implemented).  SES devices often have descriptive text for an object
			which can tell you things like location (e.g, "left power supply").

     SESIOC_INIT	Initialize the enclosure.

FILES

     /dev/sesN	    The Nth ses device.

DIAGNOSTICS

     When the kernel is configured with DEBUG enabled, the first open to an SES device will spit out overall enclosure parameters to the console.

HISTORY

     The ses driver was written for the SCSI subsystem by Matthew Jacob.  This is the functional equivalent of a similar driver available in
     Solaris, Release 7.
