9.3.1Inquiry Vital Product data

Instead of the standard Inquiry data shown in Table 6, the initiator can request several Vital Product Data pages by setting the Inquiry command EVPD bit to one. The SCSI Interface Product Manual, part number 75789509, lists the Vital Product Data pages and describes their formats. A separate Inquiry command must be sent to the drive for each Vital Product Data page the initiator wants the drive to send back.

9.3.2Mode Sense data

The Mode Sense command provides a means for the drive to report its operating parameters to the initiator. The drive maintains four sets of Mode parameters, Default values, Saved values, Current values and Change- able values.

Default values are hard coded in the drive firmware that is stored in flash EPROM nonvolatile memory on the drive PCBA. Default values can be changed only by downloading a complete set of new firmware into the flash EPROM. An initiator can request and receive from the drive a list of default values and use those in a Mode Select command to set up new current and saved values, where the values are changeable.

Saved values are stored on the disk media using a Mode Select command. Only parameter values that are allowed to be changed can be changed by this method. See “Changeable values” defined below. Parameters in the saved values list that are not changeable by the Mode Select command get their values from the default values storage.
