For more information and downloads see: http://sg.danny.cz/sg/ddpt.html http://sg.danny.cz/sg/ddpt_xcopy_odx.html Changelog for ddpt-0.94 [20140407] [svn: r277] - xcopy: change default to send xcopy command to dst - add XCOPY_TO_SRC and XCOPY_TO_DST environment variables to guide where to send xcopy command - odx: add new offloaded copy technique, also known as "xcopy v2, lite", that exposes ROD Tokens - ddpt supports 4 odx variants: full copy, zero output blocks, read to tokens and write from tokens. Latter two facilitate network copies - add scatter-gather list capability to seek=, skip= to read from command line, file or stdin - ddptctl: add odx helper utility - can issue individual PT, WUT, RRTI, Report All Rod Tokens, and Copy Operation Abort commands - can decode T10 defined info in Rod Token - improve CL handling of short options (e.g. '-vv') - point svn:externals to rev 563 of sg3_utils - configure: add --disable-libsgutils option so build bypasses that library if present Changelog for ddpt-0.93 [20131113] [svn: r242] ...
