LOG SENSE
Page Code: The Page Code field identifies which log page is being requested by the initiator. If the page is not
supported then the command will terminate with a CHECK CONDITION status with the sense key set to ILLEGAL
REQUEST and an additional sense code of INVALID FIELD IN CDB.
Supported pages are:
Page Code
00h
02h
03h
07h
30h
31h
33h
34h
35h
39h
3Ch
3Dh
3Eh
Parameter Pointer: The Parameter Pointer field allows the host to specify at which parameter within a log page
the requested data should begin.
For example if a page supported parameters 0 through 5, and the Parameter Pointer field contained 3 then only
parameters 3, 4 and 5 would be returned to the initiator. Similarly, if a page supported parameters 1, 3 and 6, and
the Parameter Pointer field contained 2, then only parameters 3 and 6 would be returned to the initiator.
Note that parameters within a page are always returned in ascending order according to parameter code. If an
invalid parameter pointer is sent the drive will return CHECK CONDITION with the sense key set to ILLEGAL
REQUEST and an additional sense code of INVALID FIELD IN CDB.
Allocation Length: The Allocation Length field is used to inform the target how much space the initiator has
allocated for data. The drive will give a CHECK CONDITION because of this. It will return whatever host requests,
up to the total data. Note however that if this field is 0 then this is not considered an error and the device will just
return a GOOD STATUS.

The Log Page Descriptor

The format of the log pages consists of ZERO or more variable-length parameter structures. Each page begins
with a 4-byte header followed by ZERO or more variable-length parameter structures defined for that page. The
Log Select command supports the ability to send ZERO or more log pages. The LOG SENSE command returns a
single log page as specified in the Page Code field of the CDB.
