T10/1236-D Revision 20 18 July 2001If the LONGID bit is one, the parameter list length shall be eight, and the parameter list shall have the format shownin table 110. If the LONGID bit is one and the parameter list length is not eight, the device server shall return aCHECK CONDITION status with a sense key of ILLEGAL REQUEST.Table 110 — RESERVE(10) ID only parameter listBitByte7 6 5 4 3 2 1 00 (MSB)THIRD-PARTY DEVICE ID7 (LSB)7.21.4 Superseding reservationsSuperseding reservations is mandatory if the RELEASE(10) command is implemented. An application client thatholds a current logical unit reservation may modify that reservation by issuing another RESERVE command to thesame logical unit. The superseding RESERVE command shall release the previous reservation state when thenew reservation request is granted. The current reservation shall not be modified if the superseding reservationrequest is not granted. If the superseding reservation cannot be granted because of conflicts with a previous reservation,other than the reservation being superseded, then the device server shall return RESERVATIONCONFLICT status.NOTE 35 Superseding reservations allow the <strong>SCSI</strong> device ID in a third-party reservation to be changed. Thiscapability is necessary for certain situations when using the EXTENDED COPY command.7.22 RESERVE(6) commandThe RESERVE(6) command (see table 111) is used to reserve a logical unit. This subclause describes only thoseinstances where the RESERVE(6) command differs from the RESERVE(10) command. Except for the instancesdescribed in this subclause, the RESERVE(6) command shall function exactly like the RESERVE(10) command(see 7.21).Table 111 — RESERVE(6) commandBitByte7 6 5 4 3 2 1 00 OPERATION CODE (16h)1 Reserved Obsolete2 Obsolete34Obsolete5 CONTROLObsolete Bits 1 through 4 of Byte 1 provided a method, limited to device addresses 0 through 7, to handlethird-party reservations in earlier versions of the <strong>SCSI</strong> standard. The obsolete method has been replaced by theRESERVE(10) and RELEASE(10).Byte 1 Bit 0 and Bytes 2 through 4 provide an obsolete way to reserve extents within a logical unit. If Byte 1, Bit 0is equal to one, device servers not implementing the obsolete capability shall terminate the command with CHECKCONDITION status and the sense key shall be set to ILLEGAL REQUEST.158 dpANS <strong>SCSI</strong> <strong>Primary</strong> <strong>Commands</strong> - 2 (SPC-2)
