RESERVE UNIT Command
The RESERVE UNIT command (Table 3.8) is used to reserve
logical unit for the exclusive use of the requesting initiator to another
specified SCSI device.
Table 3.8 RESERVE UNIT Command
The RESERVE UNIT and RELEASE UNIT commands provide the
basic mechanism for contention resolution in multiple-initiator
systems.
This command requests that the entire logical unit be reserved for
the exclusive use of the initiator until the reservation is superseded by
another valid RESERVE UNIT command from the initiator that
made the reservation or until released by a BUS DEVICE RESET
message from any initiator, by a hard reset condition, or by a power
on cycle. The reservation shall not be granted if the logical unit is
reserved by another initiator. It shall be permissible for an initiator to
reserved a logical unit that is currently reserved by that initiator.
If the logical unit is reserved for another initiator, the target shall
return RESERVATION CONFLICT status.
