Main Menu → Utilities → SCSI Command Tracking
This menu provides options for setting up and logging SCSI commands that are received or
transmitted by the VT5900-SA. Results are displayed in the Host/Device ID Table.
While the VT5900-SA’s current, previous, and last assert trace data does provide a complete sum-
mary of events in a chronological fashion, SCSI Command Tracking adds the ability to filter the
trace data to show only the information related to the processing of specific SCSI commands.
Figure 6-35. SCSI Command Tracking
• SCSI Command Tracking can be toggled to ON or OFF. When toggled ON and Submitted, all
SCSI commands received or transmitted to or from the VT5900-SA are then logged in the
SCSI Commands section shown on this screen. When set to OFF (and Submitted), no SCSI
commands are logged.
• Previous entries for SCSI Command Tracking can also be cleared. Toggling the clear option to
the ON position and selecting the Submit button will clear all previous entries.
• The settings for the Host/Device ID Table are used to filter the trace data such that a sub-set of
the total logged information is displayed under the SCSI Commands section. Logged data can
be defined according to the Protocol (FC, SCSI, Other, or ALL), Type (Device, Host, or ALL),
and Value (NONE or ALL). Selecting the Submit button activates the settings for Protocol,
Type, and Value.
