Running the test

Before you run the test, complete the test setup as described in the test requirements at Hard Disk Drive Testing Prerequisites and SCSI Enclosure Services (SES) Device Testing Prerequisites.

To run this test you must set the DiskDeviceObjLink parameter. This parameter represents the physical path to the test device, for example \\.\PhysicalDrive1. If testing an MPIO device, this should be the path to the Pseudo-LUN.

Troubleshooting

If a failure is observed in the SES Tes, run scsicompliance.exe /device "<Device Instance ID>" /verbosity 4 /scenario SSP /operation test /SESDisk \\.\<Drive Number> (for example, scsicompliance.exe /device "SCSI\ENCLOSURE&VEN_LSI_CORP&PROD_SAS2X36\7&7B0A3DA&0&005600" /verbosity 4 /scenario SSP /operation test /SESDisk \\.\PhysicalDrive19)

Scsicompliance.exe can be found at <controller path> \Windows Kits\8.0\Hardware Certification Kit\Tests\<arch>\NTTEST\driverstest\storage\wdk\.

The most relevant log is scsicompliance.wtl.

For troubleshooting information, see Troubleshooting Device.Storage Testing.

Errors from this test occur via issues identified in the log file and in bug checks produced through stressing the driver under test.

More information

This test will focus on measuring the SCSI device compliance on Windows. The goal is twofold - to ensure that SCSI devices supported on the Windows operating system fully and completely adhere to the SCSI specifications set forth in SPC-4 and SES-3, as well as to allow us and our partners to fully respect and comply with these standards. Maintaining compliance will lead to a stronger and more reliable system overall.

Note  

For more information about these specifications, visit the Technical Committee T10 SCSI Storage Interfaces website.

 

The test sends the following commands to the device:

  1. Receive Diagnostic Results: 0x00, 0X01, 0X02, 0X07, 0X0A pages.

  2. Send Diagnostic: 0x02 page.

  3. Inquiry: VPD 0x83 Page.

Command option Description

Scsicompliance.exe

Runs the test.

/SESDisk

Specifies the physical path to test device, ex: \\.\PhysicalDrive1. If testing an MPIO device this should be the path to the Pseudo-LUN.

/device

Specifies the enclosure device to be tested.

/verbosity

Verbosity level

  • 0 = Shows errors and warnings in all modules plus test warnings.

  • 1 = Shows assertion details (default).

  • 2 = Shows logs of test tool framework.

  • 3 = Shows CDBs sent to device.

  • 4 = Shows data, and sense info returned.

/scenario

Specifies the test scenario.

/operation

Specifies the Test or Discovery test option.

/cdb

Specifies the CDB list.

 

Note  

The command-line switches are used when running the test manually: For command-line help for this test binary, type /h.
