of a task

 

 

 

 

 

(I/O Process) across two or more SCSI commands. If the Link bit is

 

 

 

one and the flag bit is zero, and the command completes success-

 

 

 

fully, the drive will continue the task and return a status of INTER-

 

 

 

MEDIATE and a service response of Linked Command Complete.

 

 

 

If the Link bit and the Flag bit of the Control word are both set to

 

 

 

one, and the drive completes a command with a status of INTERME-

 

 

 

DIATE, the drive will return a service response of Linked Command

 

 

 

Complete (with Flag). Refer to Section 5.6 for Linked Commands de-
