Setting Up SAS/SATA Exerciser for Target Emulation

Connect the SAS cable from the
SAS/SATA Exerciser To Initiator port to
the Initiator-side port on the unit under
test. This transmits the Traffic Generator
stream from the To Initiator port on the
SASTracer/Trainer to the initiator-side
port on the unit under test.

Generating Traffic

Generating traffic using SASSuite is a two step process. First, a text-based Traffic
Generator file must be created. This file can be created through a special conversion
command in SASSuite that converts a trace file captured by a SASTracer analyzer into a
traffic generator file. Alternatively, you can edit an existing file or write your own.

This text file is named with an .ssg extension. Once the file has been created, in can be
opened and displayed in the SASSuite application. You can invoke the SASSuite
application to transmit the traffic generation file by using the Traffic Signal button
