The 'command management model' is what was called 'full task management
model' in SAM-3. The difference of it with 'basic task management model'
in SAM-3 is that (basically) in the latter:

 - Support only for SIMPLE or ORDERED commands (not both)

 - For SIMPLE commands their reorder can't be controlled

 - On any error all queued commands must be aborted and this behavior
can't be controlled.
