Hi Georg,
I've written my utility according to the SCS-2/SCSI-3 specs, which you can
locate @ URL: http://www.symbios.com/x3t10/
I'm meeting with my boss this afternoon, so I'll see if he still opposes
releasing
a binary to the Linux community.
Note: You'll find what you need regarding defect lists in the SCSI specs
too.
If you are looking for SCSI pass-through examples, visit URL:
http://www.torque.net/sg/
I'm pretty sure Doug has some good examples you can use.
Regards,
Robin

Robin,
this is exactly what I'm looking for!
What a pithy that you can't release that tool (not even as binary?).
Are this log sense commands standardized?
Can you point me at some place where I can learn more about this?
Georg
