DESCRIPTION

The stmfOfflineLogicalUnit() function takes offline a logical unit that is currently in the online state. Once in the offline state, the logical unit will no longer be capable of servicing requests in the system.

This API call can be used to take offline a logical unit for servicing. Once the logical unit is offline, an initiator port that attempts to issue any SCSI commands to the offlined logical unit will receive a check condition. For purposes of the REPORT LUNS command, the logical unit will no longer appear in the logical unit inventory for any initiator ports to which it is currently mapped by one or more view entries.

RETURN VALUES

The following values are returned:

STMF_ERROR_BUSY

The device is currently busy.

STMF_STATUS_SUCCESS

The API call was successful.
