PARAMETERS

handle an open handle returned from HBA_OpenAdapter(3HBAAPI)

hbaPortWWN

HBA_SendRLS()

the Port WWN of the local HBA through which to send the RLS

HBA_SendRPL()

the Port WWN of the local HBA through which to send the RPL

HBA_SendRPS()

the Port WWN of the local HBA through which to send the RPS

HBA_SendSRL()

the Port WWN of the local HBA through which to send the SRL

HBA_SendLIRR()

the Port WWN of the local HBA through which to send the LIRR

destWWN

HBA_SendRLS()

the Port WWN of the remote Target to which the RLS is sent

HBA_SendLIRR()

he Port WWN of the remote Target to which the LIRR is sent

wwn If non-zero, wwn is the port WWN to be scanned. If wwn is zero, it is ignored.

domain If wwn is zero, domain is the domain number for which loops will be scanned. If wwn is non-zero, domain is ignored.

agent_wwn If non-zero, agent_wwn is the port WWN for which the port list is requested. If agent_wwn is zero, it is ignored.

agent_domain If agent_wwn is non-zero, agent_domain is the domain number and the domain controller for which the port list is requested. If agent_wwn is zero, it is ignored.

port_index index of the first FC_Port returned in the response list

object_wwn If non-zero, object_wwn is the port WWN for which the Port Status is requested. If object_wwn is zero, it is ignored.

object_port_number If object_wwn is zero, object_port_number is the relative port number of the FC_Port for which the Port Status is requested. If object_wwn is non-zero, object_port_number is ignored.

function the registration function to be performed

type If type is non-zero, the type is the FC-4 device TYPE for which specific link incident information requested is requested. If type is zero, only common link incident information is requested.

pRspBuffer

HBA_SendRLS()

a pointer to a buffer into which the RLS response is copied

HBA_SendRPL()

a pointer to a buffer into which the RPL response is copied

HBA_SendRPS()

a pointer to a buffer into which the RPS response is copied

HBA_SendSRL()

a pointer to a buffer into which the SRL response is copied

HBA_SendLIRR()

A pointer to a buffer into which the LIRRresponse is copied.

RspBufferSize a pointer to the size of the buffer

HBA_SendRLS()
HBA_SendLIRR()

A size of 28 is sufficient for the largest response.

HBA_SendRPS()

A size of 58 is sufficient for the largest response.

HBA_SendSRL()

A size of 8 is sufficient for the largest response.

 

DESCRIPTION

The HBA_SendRLS() function returns the Link Error Status Block associated with the agent WWN or agent-domain. For more information see "Read Link Status Block (RLS)" in FC-FS.

The HBA_SendRPL() function returns the Read Port List associated with the agent WWN or agent-domain. For more information see "Read Port List (RPL)" in FC-FS.

The HBA_SendRPS() function returns the Read Port Status Block associated with the agent WWN or agent-domain. For more information see "Read Port Status Block(RPS)" in FC-FS.

The HBA_SendSRL() function returns the Scan Remote Loop associated with the agent WWN or agent-domain. For more information see "Scan Remote Loop(SRL)" in FC-FS.

The HBA_SendLIRR() function returns the Link Incident Record Registration associated with the destportWWN. For more information see "Link Incident Record Registration (LIRR) in FC-FS.  

RETURN VALUES

These functions return the following values:

HBA_STATUS_OK

The LS_ACC for the ELS has been returned.

HBA_STATUS_ERROR_ELS_REJECT

The ELS has been rejeced by the local HBA Port.

HBA_STATUS_ERROR_ILLEGAL_WWN

The value of hbaPortWWN is not a valid port WWN on the specified HBA.

HBA_STATUS_ERROR

An error occurred.
