SG_LUNS(8) SG3_UTILS SG_LUNS(8)
NAME
sg_luns - send the SCSI REPORT LUNS command
SYNOPSIS
sg_luns [--decode] [--help] [--hex] [--maxlen=LEN] [--quiet] [--raw] [--select=SR] [--verbose] [--version] DEVICE
DESCRIPTION
Send the SCSI REPORT LUNS command to the DEVICE and outputs the response. In the SPC-3 SCSI standard support for this command is mandatory.
OPTIONS
Arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as well.
-d, --decode
decode logical unit numbers into their hierarchical parts. Interprets luns as described in SAM-3 when the HiSup bit is set in a
standard INQUIRY's response.
-h, --help
output the usage message then exit.
-H, --hex
output response to this command in ASCII hex.
-m, --maxlen=LEN
where LEN is the (maximum) response length in bytes. It is placed in the cdb's "allocation length" field. If not given (or LEN is
zero) then 65536 is used. The maximum value of LEN is 65536.
-q, --quiet
output ASCII hex rendering of each report lun, one per line.
-r, --raw
output response in binary (to stdout).
-s, --select=SR
this option sets the 'select report' field (SR) in the SCSI REPORT LUNS command. The default value is 0. When 0 is given (or this
option is not specified) then the DEVICE should yield a list of luns addressable via this "I_T nexus" that use the following lun
addressing methods: logical unit addressing, peripheral device addressing and flat space addressing. When 1 is given the DEVICE
should yield a list of only "well known" logical units addressable via this "I_T" nexus. When 2 is given the DEVICE should yield all
luns addressable via this "I_T" nexus. To simplify, for the I_T nexus associated with the DEVICE, the meanings of the SR values
are:
0 : all luns excluding well known logical units
1 : well known logical units
2 : all luns
Values greater than 2 are reserved (at SPC-4 (rev 8)).
-v, --verbose
increase the level of verbosity, (i.e. debug output).
-V, --version
print the version string and then exit.
EXIT STATUS
The exit status of sg_luns is 0 when it is successful. Otherwise see the sg3_utils(8) man page.
