MP_SetTPGAccess(3MPAPI) 			   Common Multipath Management Library Functions			   MP_SetTPGAccess(3MPAPI)

NAME

       MP_SetTPGAccess - set a target port group access state

SYNOPSIS

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

       MP_STATUS MP_SetTPGAccess(MP_OID luOid, MP_UINT32 count,
	    MP_TPG_STATE_PAIR *pTpgStateList);

PARAMETERS

       luOid		An object ID that has type MP_MULTIPATH_LOGICAL_UNIT.

       count		The number of valid items in the pTpgStateList.

       pTpgStateList	A pointer to an array of data structure MP_TPG_STATE_PAIR. This array must contain the same number of elements as count.

DESCRIPTION

       The MP_SetTPGAccess() function sets the access state for a list of target port groups. This allows a client to force a failover or failback
       to a desired set of target port groups. This is only valid for devices that support explicit access state  manipulation	(i.e.,	the  field
       explicitFailover of data structure MP_TARGET_PORT_GROUP_PROPERTIES must be true).

       This API provides the information needed to set up a  SCSI SET TARGET PORT GROUPS command.

       The  plugin should not implement this API by directly calling the SCSI SET TARGET PORT GROUPS command. The plugin should use the MP drivers
       API (for example, ioctl) if available.

       There are two reasons why this API is restricted to devices supporting explicit failover commands. Without an explicit command, the  behav-
       ior of failback tends to be device-specific.

       When the caller is finished using the list it must free the memory used by the list by calling	      MP_FreeOidList.

RETURN VALUES

       MP_STATUS_ACCESS_STATE_INVALID

	   The target device returns a status indicating the caller is attempting to establish an illegal combination of access states.

       MP_STATUS_FAILED

	   The underlying interface failed the command for some reason other than MP_STATUS_ACCESS_STATE_INVALID.

       MP_STATUS_INVALID_OBJECT_TYPE

	   The luOid 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 luOid owner ID or object sequence number is invalid.

       MP_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER

	   The	pTpgStateList is null, or when one of the TPGs referenced in the list is not associated with the specified MP logical unit, or the
	   luOid has a type subfield other than MP_OBJECT_TYPE_MULTIPATH_LU.

       MP_STATUS_SUCCESS

	   The operation is successful.

       MP_STATUS_UNSUPPORTED

	   The API is not supported.

NAME

       MP_AssignLogicalUnitToTPG - assign a multipath logical unit to a target port group

SYNOPSIS

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

       MP_STATUS MP_AssignLogicalUnitToTPG(MP_OID tpgOid, MP_OID luOid);

PARAMETERS

       tpgOid	 An  object  ID  that has type MP_TARGET_PORT_GROUP. The target port group currently in active access state that the administrator
		 would like the LU assigned to.

       luOid	 An object ID that has type MP_MULTIPATH_LOGICAL_UNIT.

DESCRIPTION

       The MP_AssignLogicalUnitToTPG() function assigns a multipath logical unit to a target port group.

       Calling this function is valid only if the field supportsLuAssignment in the data  structure  TARGET_PORT_GROUP_PROPERTIES  is  true.  This
       capability  is  not defined in SCSI standards. In some cases, devices support this capability through non-SCSI interfaces (such as SMI-S or
       SNMP). This method is only used when devices support this capability through vendor-specific means.

       At any given time, each LU will typically be associated with two target port groups, one in active state and  one  in  standby  state.  The
       result  of this API will be that the LU associations change to a different pair of target port groups. The caller should specify the object
       ID of the desired target port group in active access state.

RETURN VALUES

       MP_STATUS_INVALID_OBJECT_TYPE

	   The tpgOid or luOid parameter 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_INVALID_PARAMETER

	   The	tpgOid	parameter  has	a  type  subfield  other  than	MP_OBJECT_TYPE_TARGET_PORT_GROUP  or  luOid has a type subfield other than
	   MP_OBJECT_TYPE_MULTIPATH_LU.

       MP_STATUS_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND

	   The tpgOid or luOid owner ID or object sequence number is invalid.

       MP_STATUS_UNSUPPORTED

	   The API is not supported.

       MP_STATUS_SUCCESS

	   The operation is successful.
