Sun_MP_SendScsiCmd - send a SCSI command to a logical unit

MP_STATUS MP_SendScsiCmd(MP_OID oid, struct uscsi_cmd *cmd);

oid

The object ID of the logical unit path.

cmd

A uscsi_cmd structure. See uscsi(4I).

The Sun_MP_SendScsiCmd() function sends a SCSI command on a specific path to a logical unit. This function is applicable only to an OID whose MP_PLUGIN_PROPERTIES driverVendor, as defined by the Multipath Management API, is equal to "Sun Microsystems". See MP_GetPluginProperties(3MPAPI) and Multipath Management API Version 1.0.

MP_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER

The pProps is null or specifies a memory area to which data cannot be written, or the oid has a type subfield other than MP_OBJECT_TYPE_PLUGIN.

MP_STATUS_INVALID_OBJECT_TYPE

The oid does not specify any valid object type. This is most likely to happen if an uninitialized object ID is passed to the API.

MP_STATUS_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND

The oid owner ID or object sequence number is invalid.

MP_STATUS_SUCCESS

The operation is successful.

The uscsi command is very powerful but somewhat dangerous. See the WARNINGS section of uscsi(4I) before using this interface.
