Re: error conditions in ping

[julian_satran@il.ibm.com]

Prasenjit,

I have an entire list of errors and a sketch of how to handle (but I did
not finalize the
chapter). For very few - in which a recovery action must be done - there
will be a
check condition. For most the errors that result from an error in the
initiator
or even a malicious initiator the action taken will be to discard the PDU
and
(after a number of them) to close the session. The same si true for an
initiator with regard
to a "bad" target.

Regards,
Julo

Subject:  error conditions in ping





If there are error conditions in the ping command (such as incorrect
cmd_rn), is
a ping response expected?  Clarification requested,

Prasenjit
