Test 9.3.1 - SSP Data IU – TPT TAG First Burst Data

Purpose: To determine that the DUT, a SAS Initiator, properly sets the TARGET PORT TRANSFER TAG field
when sending First Burst Data.

References:

9.2.1 SAS Standard

Resource Requirements: SAS Protocol Analyzer and Generator. The DUT will need to have software capable of
generating SCSI traffic.

Revision History: April 11, 2005

Test Setup: The DUT and the Testing Station are physically connected. The SAS Initiator DUT is attached to the
SAS Target through a SAS Protocol analyzer.

Test Procedure (SSP Initiators):

• Allow the DUT to open a connection to the attached SAS target and transmit a WRITE command with

First Burst data. The Testing Station should transmit XFER_RDY in response.

Observable Results: Verify that the TARGET PORT TRANSFER TAG field is set to FFFFh in all First Burst
DATA frames sent by the DUT.
