Scope:

This part of ISO/IEC 14776 defines the command set extensions for operation of SCSI medium changer devices and command set extensions that allow medium changer functions in other types of SCSI devices. 

This SCSI-3 Medium Changer Commands standard

  • permits an application client to communicate with a logical unit that declares itself to be a medium changer device in the DEVICE TYPE field of the INQUIRY command response data over a SCSI service delivery subsystem,
  • permits an application client to access the medium changer functions in a logical unit that sets the MCHNGR bit in INQUIRY command response data,
  • defines commands to manage the operation of SCSI medium changer devices.

Project need:

To review the Standard within the required 5 year period.
