To start AIP:

1. Make sure “AIP Generation Disabled” (byte 10, bit 3) is

cleared

. Default

is 0.

2. Make sure “AIP Checking Enabled” (byte 10, bit 2) is set for EACH. This

bit is maintained uniquely for each unique initiator ID that senses it or

selects it, so all initiators that want to participate in AIP must set this for

themselves. Default is 0.

3. Send a negotiation message (SDTR, WDTR, or PPR) with valid AIP data.

The drive will check to see if it received valid AIP data from the host for

the entire negotiation message. If so, AIP is activated and remains so for

as long as that initiator is still valid. If not, no errors are reported, and

another attempt is made at the next negotiation.
