Errors on DATA frames (TestB.3 & TestB.4)
NAK response from Initiator (TestB.3)
Target device shall send a Response frame with Check Condition status, sense key = Aborted
Command, and
additional sense code = NAK RECEIVED. This Response frame may be sent in the same or in a new
connection.
Test Procedure:
1. The Testing Station is instructed to start and complete a phy Reset sequence
followed by an Identify sequence with the DUT. Since the DUT is a target, the Testing
Station is instructed to transmit an Identify Address frame indicating that it is a SAS
Initiator.
2. The Testing Station is instructed to open an SSP connection to the DUT and transmit
a SCSI READ(10) command for 1 frame. Close the connection
3. Allow the DUT to open an SSP connection to the Testing Station and transmit DATA
frames. The Testing Station is instructed to transmit a NAK to the DATA frame.
Observable Results: Verify that the DUT transmits a SCSI response Abort with sense key of
ABORTED COMMAND and sense code of NAK RECEIVED.
