3.1.18.3 Persistent Reserve In Parameter Data For Read Reservations; Figure 3.16 Persistent Reserve In Command: Parameter Data (Read Reservations) - Fujitsu MAX3073NC - SCSI,80, Dell DC961,Hard Drive Scsi Logical Interface Specifications

Command Specifications
This counter value is not incremented in the following cases:
When the PERSISTENT RESERVE IN command is executed
When the RESERVE or RELEASE service action of the PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT command
is executed
If the PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT command cannot be executed because of an error or a reservation
conflict. The "Generation" field is reset to zero switching the IDD's power off/on, regardless of the
APTPL bit specification.
When an initiator refers to the value in the "Generation" field, a change of the configuration of that
initiator associated with the logical unit can be detected without that initiator recognizing the change.
The "Additional Length" field contains a count of the number of bytes in the reservation key list. If the
allocation length specified by the PERSISTENT RESERVE IN command is not sufficient for containing
the entire parameter list, only a portion of the list (from byte 0 to the specified allocation length) is
transferred to the initiator. If the remaining data of the list may be truncated, the "Additional Length"
field displays the number of bytes of the entire reservation key list. (This is not assumed to be an error.)
The reservation key list contains the 8-byte reservation keys for all initiators that have been registered
via all ports on the drive.
