SCSI-2 Commands: Release
The Release command enables the initiator to release reservations of the library or
elements of the library as set by the Reserve (16h) command. See
page 115, for more information.
The release of an unreserved library or of unreserved elements of the library is not
considered an error. Only the initiator that reserved the library or its elements can release
them. If another initiator attempts to release this reserved library or its element, the
library returns a Reservation Conflict status.
