HASCSI(8)							     HASCSI(8)

NAME
       hascsi - Host Agent SCSI Devices information module

SYNOPSIS
       hascsi -h

       hascsi [ -f  schema file ] [ -L	| -l  log file ] [ -v ]

       hascsi -n [ -f  schema file ] [ -L  | -l	 log file ] [ -v ]

       hascsi -g [ -f  schema file ] [ -L  | -l	 log file ] [ -v ]

DESCRIPTION
       The  hascsi program is used to collect a pre-defined set of SCSI device
       information for devices attached	 to  the  local	 host.	The  collected
       information  is	used  to  update a local RAP database or dumped to the
       standard output if -n option is selected.

       The set of information collected by  hascsi  is	defined	 in  an	 ASCII
       schema  file  specified	by  the	 -f  option  and has the default value
       schema/hascsi.sch.  Each line in the schema file	 represents  a	single
       attribute   and	my  have  one  or  more	 values	 associated  with  it.
       Attributes other than resource type and	version	 number	 are  used  to
       determine  the  type  of information to be reported by hascsi.  A given
       pieces of information will not be collected or reported if the  associ‐
       ated  attribute is commented out with # or remove from the schema file.
       Note that attributes resource type and version number are part of every
       schema  file and should not be removed or commented out.	 A schema file
       will be rejected if an essential attributes is  missing	or  the	 value
       associated  with	 the  version  number  does  not match that of hascsi.
       hascsi can be used to generate a fresh schema file using the -g option.

       The SCSI device information reported by hascsi is defined in  the  file
       hascsi.sch as follows:

       device type
	      one of disk , cd-rom , tape , or autochanger.

       firmware revision level
	      firmware revision level reported by the device.

       inquiry data
	      inquiry data as reported by the device.

       bus

       target

       lun    Logical Unit Number.

       access path
	      path used to access the device via normal IO channels.

       scsi address
	      SCSI address for the device.

       number of arms
	      number of robotic arms in the autochanger.

       number of drives
	      number of drives in the autochanger.

       number of ports
	      number of import/export units in the autochanger.

       number of slots
	      number of slots in the autochanger.

       port base address
	      address of the first import/export unit in the autochanger.

       slot base address
	      address of the first slot in the autochanger.

       drive addresses
	      address of the first drive in the autochanger.

       world wide number
	      a unique id number reported by the device.

       serial number
	      hardware serial number reported by the device.

OPTIONS
       -f schema file
	      Specifies	 the  full  path  for  the schema file associated with
	      hascsi.  When -f is not specified, the default  schema  file  is
	      automatically	selected.     Default	  schema     file    =
	      ha/schema/hascsi.sch.

       -L     Tells hascsi that any logging information should be  written  to
	      the  default application logfile - this file is named hascsi.log
	      , and will be located in the applogs subdirectory of  your  Net‐
	      Worker installation directory. Only one of -L or -l may be spec‐
	      ified - not both. If  neither -L or -l is specified in the argu‐
	      ments  to hascsi then any logging information will be printed on
	      stdout and stderr.

       -l log file
	      Allows you to specify the name of	 the  file  that  hascsi  will
	      write  its  log  to. Only one of -L or -l may be specified - not
	      both. If	neither -L or -l is  specified	in  the	 arguments  to
	      hascsi  then  any	 logging information will be printed on stdout
	      and stderr.

       -n     Dump the collected information to the standard  output;  do  not
	      update the local RAP database.

       -g     Generate	a  new	schema	file for hascsi after renaming the old
	      schema, if exists, to <name>.<date>.[1..]

       -h     Display a brief help message; ignore all other options.

       -v     Run in verbose mode.

EXAMPLES
       Collect SCSI devices information and dump the result  to	 the  standard
       output, do not update the local RAP data base:

			    hascsi -n

       Collect SCSI devices information and update the local RAP data base:

			    hascsi

DIAGNOSTICS
       For  some devices some information may not be available on all systems,
       configuration  problems,	 hardware/software   limitations.   Attributes
       associated  with	 missing information are assigned the value not avail‐
       able.
