NAME
sg_prevent - sends a SCSI PREVENT ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL com-
mand
SYNOPSIS
sg_prevent [--allow] [--help] [--prevent=PC] [--verbose]
[--version] DEVICE
DESCRIPTION
Sends a SCSI PREVENT ALLOW MEDIUM REMOVAL command to DEVICE.
The default action of this utility is to prevent the remov-
ing or ejecting of the medium from a drive. This is done by
ignoring the SCSI START STOP UNIT command (see sg_start) and
ignoring the eject button on the drive when the user presses
it. Drives that hold removable disks, tape cartridges or
cd/dvd media typically implement this command. The defini-
tion of the "prevent" codes for this command differ between
disks and tapes (covered by SBC-3 and SSC-3) and cd/dvd
drives (covered by MMC-5). The "prevent codes" described
here are from MMC-5.
OPTIONS
Arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as
well.
-a, --allow
allow medium removal. This is equivalent to setting to
'--prevent=2'. Cannot be used with --prevent=PC option
(i.e. either use no options (hence prevent removal),
this option or --prevent=PC).
-h, --help
output the usage message then exit.
-p, --prevent=PC
where PC is a prevent code value. Defined values are: 0
allows removal, 1 prevents removal (default), 2 allows
persistent removal while 3 prevents persistent removal.
"Persistent" in this context means that the initiator
(port) that successfully uses code 3 blocks other ini-
tiators (ports) from allowing removal. A "persistent
prevent" state can be cleared by the owner allowing
persistent removal (code 2) or a power cycle (or any-
thing that resets the device (lun)) or some special
commands (e.g. various service actions of Persistent
Reserve Out, see SPC-3).
-v, --verbose
increase the level of verbosity, (i.e. debug output).
-V, --version
print the version string and then exit.
