02h Release A PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT command with Release service action
removes a persistent reservation held by the same initiator.
The fields associated with a Release service action match fields of the
active persistent reservation. Sending a PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT
command that specifies a Release service action when no persistent
reservation exists from that initiator does not result in an error. Instead,
the drive returns a GOOD status without altering any other reservation;
the Release service action does not change the Reservation Key.
The drive returns a CHECK CONDITION status for any PERSISTENT
RESERVE OUT command that specifies the release of a persistent
reservation held by the requesting initiator that does not match the Scope
and Type. The Sense Key is set to ILLEGAL REQUEST and the
Additional Sense Code is set to INVALID RELEASE OF ACTIVE
PERSISTENT RESERVATION. Attempts to release persistent
reservations in which none of the Scope, Type, Reservation Key, and
extent values match an existing persistent reservation held by the initiator
making the request are not errors.
An active persistent reservation may also be released by either of the
following:
• Powering off. When the most recent APTPL value received by the
drive is 0, a power-off performs a hard reset, clears all persistent
reservations, and removes all registered Reservation Keys.
• Executing a PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT command from another
initiator with a persistent reserve service action of Clear, Pre-empt, or
Pre-empt & Clear.
Do not perform a Release service action if any operations interlocked by
the persistent reservation have not yet completed.
03h Clear A PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT command with a successful Clear
service action removes all persistent reservations for all initiators. All
Reservation Keys are also removed. Any commands from any initiator
that have been accepted by the drive as non-conflicting continue their
normal executions.
A UNIT ATTENTION condition is established for all registered initiators
for the logical unit. The Sense Key is set to UNIT ATTENTION and the
Additional Sense Code is set to RESERVATIONS PREEMPTED.
Applications should not use the Clear service action except during
recoveries associated with initiator or system reconfiguration as this may
compromise data integrity.
