Description / Abstract:
This standard defines the command set extensions to facilitate
operation of the sequential-access device type member of the SCSI
stream device class. The clauses of this standard, implemented in
conjunction with the applicable clauses of the SCSI Primary
Commands - 3 standard, fully specify the standard command set for
the sequential-access device type member of the SCSI stream device
class.
The objectives of this standard are to provide the
following:
a) permit an application client to communicate over a SCSI
service delivery subsystem, with a logical unit that declares
itself to be a sequential-access device in the device type field of
the INQUIRY command response data;
b) define commands unique to the sequential-access device type;
and
c) define commands to manage the operation of the
sequential-access device type.
