SG_RESET_WP(8) SG3_UTILS SG_RESET_WP(8) NAME sg_reset_wp - send SCSI RESET WRITE POINTER command SYNOPSIS sg_reset_wp [--all] [--count=ZC] [--help] [--verbose] [--version] [--zone=ID] DEVICE DESCRIPTION Sends a SCSI RESET WRITE POINTER command to the DEVICE. This command is found in the soon to be released ZBC standard (draft prior to standard: zbc-r05.pdf). OPTIONS Arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as well. -a, --all sets the ALL field in the cdb. This causes a reset write pointer operation of all open zones and full zones. When this option is given then the --zone=ID option is ignored. Either this option or the --zone=ID option is required. -C, --count=ZC ZC is placed in the Zone Count field in the cdb of the RESET WRITE POINTER command supported by this utility. ZC should be a value from 0 to 65535 (0xffff) inclusive. -h, --help output the usage message then exit. -v, --verbose increase the level of verbosity, (i.e. debug output). -V, --version print the version string and then exit. -z, --zone=ID where ID is placed in the cdb's ZONE ID field. A zone id is a zone start logical block address (LBA). This causes a reset write pointer operation on the zone identified by the ZONE ID field. The default value is 0. Either this option or the --all option is required. ID is assumed to be in decimal unless pre- fixed with '0x' or has a trailing 'h' which indicate hexadeci- mal. EXIT STATUS The exit status of sg_reset_wp is 0 when it is successful. Otherwise see the sg3_utils(8) man page. AUTHORS Written by Douglas Gilbert.
