The ASCII operating definition description length field indicates the length in bytes of the ASCII operating definition description data that follows. If the allocation length is less than the length of data to be returned, the ASCII operation definition description length is not adjusted to reflect the truncation.

The ASCII operating definition description data field contains the ASCII operating definition description data. The data in this field is formatted in lines, where each line is terminated with a NULL (00h) character. The ASCII characters in each line shown in the table above are left aligned and ASCII spaces (20h) are used to pad each line up to the NULL (00h) character. Each line has a total length of 39 (27h) bytes, including the NULL character.

Reference the Change Definition SCSI command specification (CDB byte 3) for a description of the supported operating definitions.
