NAME

sg_luns - send the SCSI REPORT LUNS command  

SYNOPSIS

sg_luns [--decode] [--help] [--hex] [--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.
-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.
