Test 7.5.2.1 - Connections through Expanders – OPEN REJECT (STP RESOURCES BUSY)
Purpose: To determine that the DUT, an expander acting as an STP Target properly uses OPEN REJECT (STP
RESOURCES BUSY).

Resource Requirements: SAS Protocol Analyzer and Generator

Test Setup: The DUT and the Testing Station are physically connected. A SATA disk drive is attached to the DUT.
Test Procedure (STP Target):
• The Testing Station should start and complete a Phy Reset sequence followed by an Identify sequence
with the DUT. Since the DUT is an expander with an attached SATA device the Testing Station should
transmit an Identify Address frame indicating that it is a SAS Initiator.
• The Testing Station should open an SMP Connection to the DUT. The Testing Station should transmit
a REPORT_GENERAL SMP Request to the DUT. The DUT should respond on the same connection
with a REPORT_GENERAL SMP Response. Close the connection.
• The Testing Station should open an SMP Connection to the DUT. The Testing Station should transmit
a DISCOVER SMP Request to the DUT with the Phy ID of the expander phy with the attached SATA
device. The DUT should respond on the same connection with a DISCOVER SMP Response. Close
the connection.
• The Testing Station should transmit an STP OPEN ADDRESS frame to the DUT. The Testing Station
should wait for OPEN_ACCEPT from the DUT.
• The Testing Station should transmit a second STP OPEN ADDRESS frame to the DUT, from the same
SAS source address.
Observable Results: Verify that the DUT transmits OPEN REJECT (STP RESOURCES BUSY) in response to the
second received OPEN ADDRESS frame. If the DUT tracks all commands by the STP initiator ports’ SAS
addresses, this item is not applicable. This item is only applicable if the DUT supports affiliations.
