SMP_ZONE_ACTIVATE(8)		    SMP_UTILS		    SMP_ZONE_ACTIVATE(8)

NAME
     smp_zone_activate - invoke ZONE ACTIVATE SMP function

SYNOPSIS
     smp_zone_activate	[--expected=EX]  [--help]  [--hex]  [--interface=PARAMS]
     [--raw] [--sa=SAS_ADDR] [--verbose] [--version] SMP_DEVICE[,N]

DESCRIPTION
     Sends a SAS Serial Management Protocol (SMP) ZONE ACTIVATE function request
     to an SMP target. The SMP target is identified by the  SMP_DEVICE	and  the
     --sa=SAS_ADDR. Depending on the interface, the SAS_ADDR may be deduced from
     the SMP_DEVICE. The mpt interface uses SMP_DEVICE to identify a HBA (an SMP
     initiator)  and  needs  the  additional ,N to differentiate between HBAs if
     there are multiple present.

     This function, if successful, will cause various zoning related shadow val-
     ues (e.g. zone permission table and zone phy information) to be  copied  to
     the  corresponding  current  values. If the saving to "saved" values option
     has been selected then the various zoning related shadow values  will  also
     be copied to the corresponding saved values.

OPTIONS
     Mandatory	arguments  to  long  options  are mandatory for short options as
     well.

     -E, --expected=EX
	    set the 'expected expander change count' field in the  SMP	request.
	    The  value	EX is from 0 to 65535 inclusive with 0 being the default
	    value. When EX is greater than zero then if the value doesn't  match
	    the expander change count of the SMP target (i.e. the expander) when
	    the  request  arrives then the target ignores the request and sets a
	    function result of "invalid expander change count" in the response.

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

     -H, --hex
	    output the response (less the CRC field) in hexadecimal.

     -I, --interface=PARAMS
	    interface specific parameters. In this case  "interface"  refers  to
	    the  path through the operating system to the SMP initiator. See the
	    smp_utils man page for more information.

     -r, --raw
	    send the response (less the CRC field) to stdout in binary. All  er-
	    ror messages are sent to stderr.

     -s, --sa=SAS_ADDR
	    specifies  the  SAS address of the SMP target device. The mpt inter-
	    face needs this option and it will typically be  an  expander's  SAS
	    address. The SAS_ADDR is in decimal but most SAS addresses are shown
	    in	hexadecimal.   To  give a number in hexadecimal either prefix it
	    with '0x' or put a trailing 'h' on it.

     -v, --verbose
	    increase the verbosity of the output. Can be used multiple times.

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

CONFORMING TO
