# This file is an example for the sg_persist utility.
# It discusses using "TransportID"s which are defined (most recently)
# in SPC-4 revison 20 section 7.5.4 titled: "TransportID identifiers".
#
# The sg_persist utility can take one or more "transportID"s from stdin when
# either the '--transport-id=-" or "-X -" option is given on the command
# line.
# To see transport IDs decoded after they have been read in (e.g. to check
# they are well formed) use the verbose flag 3 times (i.e. "... -vvv ...").
# Here is a simple example (for SPI) of a comma separted hex list:
1,0,0,7,0,0,0,1 # SPI, initiator address=7, relative_port_num=1
# and here is the transport specific format for the same thing:
# spi,1,7
# An example for SAS follows, first as a hex string, then in transport
# specific format (incremented by 1)
6,0,0,0,50,6,5,b0,0,6,f2,60

# For iSCSI the hex list form is awkward, better to use the transport
# specific format. [The leading spaces are ignored.]

# Leading spaces and tabs before a '#' are ok.
