SMP_REP_MANUFACTURER(8)		   SMP_UTILS	       SMP_REP_MANUFACTURER(8)

NAME
       smp_rep_manufacturer - invoke REPORT MANUFACTURER INFORMATION SMP func‐
       tion

SYNOPSIS
       smp_rep_manufacturer  [--help]  [--hex]	[--interface=PARAMS]   [--raw]
       [--sa=SAS_ADDR] [--verbose] [--version] SMP_DEVICE[,N]

DESCRIPTION
       Sends  a	 SAS Management Protocol (SMP) REPORT MANUFACTURER INFORMATION
       request function to a SMP target. The SMP target is identified  by  the
       SMP_DEVICE  and	the SAS_ADDR. Depending on the interface, the SAS_ADDR
       may be deduced from the SMP_DEVICE. With one  interface	there  is  one
       SMP_DEVICE  per machine so the SMP_DEVICE,N syntax is needed to differ‐
       entiate between HBAs if there are multiple present.

OPTIONS
       Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options  as
       well.

       -h, --help
	      output the usage message then exit.

       -H, --hex
	      output the response in hexadecimal.

       -I, --interface=PARAMS
	      interface	 specific  parameters. In this case "interface" refers
	      to the path through the operating system to the  SMP  initiator.
	      See the smp_utils man page for more information.

       -r, --raw
	      send  the	 response  to stdout in binary. All error messages are
	      sent to stderr.

       -s, --sa=SAS_ADDR
	      specifies the SAS address of the SMP  target  device.  Typically
	      this  is	an  expander.  This  option  may  not be needed if the
	      SMP_DEVICE has the target's SAS address within it. The  SAS_ADDR
	      is  in  decimal but most SAS addresses are shown in hexadecimal.
	      To give a number in hexadecimal either prefix it	with  '0x'  or
	      put a trailing 'h' on it.

       -v, --verbose
	      increase the verbosity of the output. Can be used multiple times

       -V, --version
	      print the version string and then exit.

CONFORMING TO
       The  SMP	 REPORT	 MANUFACTURER  function	 was introduced in SAS-1, with
       small additions in SAS-1.1 .
