This document contains policies for disk and disk array implementations.
This document is limited to datapath interfaces and does not address
policies related to physical interfaces or management interfaces
independent from the datapath. The software considered includes drivers
for the Solaris OS version 9 and later, and management applications that
issue SCSI, Fibre Channel, and iSCSI commands.
Although disks and arrays implement many standard interfaces, there are
still numerous problems with lack of interoperability. These areas of
non-interoperability stem from gaps in standards, standards that have
changed over time, overlapping standards, standards that do not meet the
needs of the industry, and differing interpretations of the standards.
This document defines standards that apply to Sun products in order to
minimize these areas of non-interoperability.
