Self-test execution status byte

The total time in seconds to complete off-line data collection activity word specifies how may seconds the device requires to complete its sequence of off-line data collection activity. Valid values for this word are from 0001h to FFFFh.

The self-test execution status byte reports the execution status of the self-test routine.

Bits (3:0) (Percent Self-Test Remaining)

The value in these bits indicates an approximation of the percent of the self-test routine remaining until completion in ten percent increments. Valid values are 9 through 0. A value of 0 indicates the self-test routine is complete. A value of 9 means 90% of total test time remaining.

Bits (7:4) (Self-test Execution Status)

The value in these bits indicates the current Self-test Execution Status.

	Table 8-19 Self-test Execution Status Values

Value	Description
0	The previous self-test routine completed without error or no self-test has ever been run
1	The self-test routine was aborted by the host
2	The self-test routine was interrupted by the host with a hardware or software reset
3	A fatal error or unknown test error occurred while the device was executing its self-test
	routine and the device was unable to complete the self-test routine.
4	The previous self-test completed having a test element that failed and the test element
	that failed is not known.
5	The previous self-test completed having the electrical element of the test failed.
6	The previous self-test completed having the servo (and/or seek) test element of the
	test failed.
7	The previous self-test completed having the read element of the test failed.
8	The previous self-test completed having a test element that failed and the device is
	suspected of having handling damage.
9-14	Reserved.
15	Self-test routine in progress.

Total time to complete off-line data collection

The total time in seconds to complete off-line data collection activity word specifies how many seconds the device requires completing the sequence of off-line data collection activity. Valid values for this word are from 0001h to FFFFh.

Off-line data collection capability

The following describes the definition for the off-line data collection capability bits. If the value of all of these bits is equal to zero, then this device implements no off-line data collection.

Bit 0 (EXECUTE OFF-LINE IMMEDIATE implemented bit) – If the value of this bit equals one, then the

SMART EXECUTE OFF-LINE IMMEDIATE command is implemented by this device. If the value of this bit equals zero, then the SMART EXECUTE OFF-LINE IMMEDIATE command is not implemented by this device.

Bit 1 (vendor specific)

Bit 2 (abort/restart off-line by host bit) – If the value of this bit equals one, then the device shall abort

all off-line data collection activity initiated by an SMART EXECUTE OFF-LINE IMMEDIATE command upon receipt of a new command. Off-line data collection activity must be restarted by a new SMART EXECUTE OFF-LINE IMMEDIATE command from the host. If the value of this bit equals zero, the device shall suspend off-line data collection activity after an interrupting command
