NAME
     sg_rep_pip - send SCSI REPORT PROVISIONING INITIALIZATION PATTERN command

SYNOPSIS
     sg_rep_pip [--help] [--hex] [--maxlen=LEN] [--raw] [--readonly] [--verbose]
     [--version] DEVICE

DESCRIPTION
     Sends  a  SCSI REPORT PROVISIONING INITIALIZATION PATTERN command to DEVICE
     and outputs the data returned. This command is found  in  the  SBC-4  draft
     standard, revision 21 (sbc4r21.pdf).

OPTIONS
     Arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as well.

     -h, --help
	    output the usage message then exit.

     -H, --hex
	    output  the  response  in  hexadecimal to stdout. When used once the
	    whole response is output in ASCII hexadecimal, prefixed  by  an  ad-
	    dress  (starting  at  0) on each line. When used twice the whole re-
	    sponse is output in hexadecimal with no  leading  address  (on  each
	    line).  The  default  action  is the same as giving the --hex option
	    once.

     -m, --maxlen=LEN
	    where LEN is the (maximum) response length in bytes. It is placed in
	    the cdb's "allocation length" field. If not given (or LEN  is  zero)
	    then 8192 is used. The maximum allowed value of LEN is 1048576.

     -r, --raw
	    output  the  SCSI  response (i.e. the data-out buffer) in binary (to
	    stdout).

     -R, --readonly
	    open the DEVICE read-only (e.g. in Unix  with  the	O_RDONLY  flag).
	    The default is to open it read-write.

     -v, --verbose
	    increase the level of verbosity, (i.e. debug output).

     -V, --version
	    print the version string and then exit.

EXIT STATUS
     The exit status of sg_rep_pip is 0 when it is successful. Otherwise see the
     sg3_utils(8) man page.
