NAME
       smp_conf_route_info - invoke CONFIGURE ROUTE INFORMATION SMP function

SYNOPSIS
       smp_conf_route_info  [--disable]  [--expected=EX]  [--help]  [--hex] [--index=IN] [--interface=PARAMS] [--phy=ID] [--raw]
       [--routed=R_SAS_ADDR] [--sa=SAS_ADDR] [--verbose] [--version] SMP_DEVICE[,N]

DESCRIPTION
       Sends a SAS Management Protocol (SMP) CONFIGURE ROUTE INFORMATION request function to a SMP target.  The  SMP  target  is
       identified  by  the  SMP_DEVICE  and  the --sa=SAS_ADDR. Depending on the interface, the SAS_ADDR may be deduced from the
       SMP_DEVICE.  With one interface there is one SMP_DEVICE per machine so the SMP_DEVICE,N syntax is needed to differentiate
       between HBAs if there are multiple present.

       Each phy in a SAS expander that has an associated routing attribute of "table" has a router table. The number of rows (or
       entries) in each router table is given by the "expander route indexes" field in the response of the REPORT GENERAL  func-
       tion.

OPTIONS
       Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as well.

       -d, --disable
              set the "disable expander route entry" flag in a row of the router table associated with --phy=ID of the given SMP
              target (e.g. an expander).  Within the router table the row that is disabled is identified by the  expander  route
              index given by --index=IN.

       -E, --expected=EX
              set the 'expected expander change count' field in the SMP request.  The value EX is from 0 to 65535 inclusive with
              0 being the default value. When EX is greater than zero then if the value doesn't match the expander change  count
              of  the  SMP  target  (i.e.  the expander) when the request arrives then the target ignores the request and sets a
              function result of "invalid expander change count" in the response.

       -h, --help
              output the usage message then exit.

       -H, --hex
              output the response in hexadecimal.

       -i, --index=IN
              expander route index. IN is a value between 0 and 65535. Default is 0.  More precisely the maximum index value  is
              (expander_route_indexes - 1).

       -I, --interface=PARAMS
              interface specific parameters. In this case "interface" refers to the path through the operating system to the SMP
              initiator. See the smp_utils man page for more information.

       -p, --phy=ID
              phy identifier. ID is a value between 0 and 127. Default is 0.

       -r, --raw
              send the response to stdout in binary. All error messages are sent to stderr.

       -R, --routed=R_SAS_ADDR
              specifies the SAS address to be placed in a row  (given  by  --index=IN)  of  the  router  table  associated  with
              --phy=ID.  Default  value  is 0.  The R_SAS_ADDR is in decimal but most SAS addresses are given in hexadecimal. To
              give a number in hexadecimal either prefix it with '0x' or put a trailing 'h' on it.

       -s, --sa=SAS_ADDR
              specifies the SAS address of the SMP target device. Typically this is an expander. This option may not  be  needed
              if  the  SMP_DEVICE  has the target's SAS address within it. The SAS_ADDR is in decimal but most SAS addresses are
              shown in hexadecimal. To give a number in hexadecimal either prefix it with '0x' or put a trailing 'h' on it.

       -v, --verbose
              increase the verbosity of the output. Can be used multiple times

       -V, --version
              print the version string and then exit.

CONFORMING TO
       The SMP CONFIGURE ROUTE INFORMATION function was introduced in SAS-1 .  The "Expander change count" field  was  added  in
       SAS-2 .
