Information Technology – Serial Storage Architecture - SCSI-3 Protocol (SSA-S3P)

active, Most Current
Organization: ANSI
Publication Date: 1 December 1997
Status: active
Page Count: 66
scope:

This document defines a protocol layer of the Serial Storage Architecture (SSA) that runs on SSA-TL2 while running on SSA-PH2. The goals of SSA-S3P are:

a) map the SAM services and terminology to SSA;

b) define the data field format of the SSA-S3P SMSs;

c) support for dual port and alternate pathing;

d) provide support for auto-sense;

e) provide support for third-party operations;

f) other capabilities that fit within the scope of SSA-S3P that may be proposed during the development phase by the participants in the project.

This document defines the SCSI-3 protocol layer of the Serial Storage Architecture (SSA). SSA defines a serial interface hierarchy to be used for purposes within its distance and performance characteristics, including but not limited to storage subsystems. This standard is intended to be used with a transport layer protocol [e.g., SSA Transport Layer 2 (SSA-TL2)] and a physical layer [e.g., SSA Physical Layer 2 (SSA-PH2)].

SSA family of standards

This document describes an upper-level protocol of Serial Storage Architecture. SSA-S3P is a mapping of the existing SCSI-2 protocol, ANSI X3.131-1994, with extensions to map SCSI-2 to the SSA serial link.
