[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] iSCSI autosense and ACAHi, I would appreciate if someone could clarify why ACA is needed if autosense is mandatory? Thanks, Dennis --- Section 3.3.3 and 7.2 of rev 06 are copied here for reference: 3.3 iSCSI Port Mode Page The following outlines the iSCSI Port mode page: ... 3.3.2 Enable ACA (A) When this field is set to 1 the target is mandated to enter ACA state as specified. When set to 0 the target shall not enter ACA state. This field can also be set by a text-mode key=value pair (EnableACA). 7.2 Autosense and Auto Contingent Allegiance (ACA) Autosense refers to the automatic return of sense data to the initiator in case a command did not complete successfully. iSCSI mandates support for autosense. ACA helps preserve ordered command execution in presence of errors. As iSCSI can have many commands in-flight between initiator and target iSCSI mandates support for ACA.
