[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] RE: iSCSI: Response codes in SCSI Response CommandI also don't understand the exact mapping that is trying to be implied here. The paragraph seems to imply that the Status / Response field of this PDU is used to report SCSI status as specified in SAM-2, yet the iSCSI status codes (that can also be in the same field?) seem to overload the status responses of SAM-2, namely CHECK CONDITION and CONDITION MET. I have reread the section, but cannot determine if opcode 0x01 can have the status flagged as "iSCSI-specific" or not, as in the Status / Response field contains an iSCSI Response, versus a SCSI Status.

The Response is used to report a Service Response. The exact mapping of the iSCSI response codes to SAM service response symbols is outside the scope of this document. If a SCSI device error is detected while data from the initiator is still expected (the command PDU did not contain all the data and the target has not received a Data PDU with the final bit Set) the target MUST wait until it receives the a data PDU with the F bit set before sending the Response PDU. Valid iSCSI Response codes are: 0x01 - Target Failure 0x02 - Delivery Subsystem Failure 0x03 - Unsolicited data rejected 0x04 - SNACK rejected 0x80-0xff - Reserved for Vendor-Unique Responses DONT YOU THINK that these response codes be actually mapped in SAM document and be made as standard to be followed by any protocol. So iSCSI should also report the same responses as defined in SAM document.
