Hi,

Can anyone point me towards GPL or OpenSource code that uses SCSI-3
Persistent Reservations. I've looked at Doug Ledford's scsires (version
0.7-2) code but it mainly deals with SCSI-2 Reserve/Release commands.

Thanks in advance

Unfortunately, my experience when writing that code was that I couldn't
find any devices that support persistent reservations, hence the reason
that the code in that package is mostly theoretical and not tested as
far as the persistent reservations are concerned.

Further to this thread, I have added a utility called
sg_persist to sg3_utils package (version 1.07 beta)
that permits low level access
to the SCSI Persistent Reservation In and Out commands.
I can do a limited amount of testing with my equipment
so I would be keen for others to test the utility.

See the news section at the top of http://www.torque.net/sg
