Command Processing
(4) Commands cleared by another INIT
If the following events have occurred, the command which is currently being
executed and commands in the queue are cleared, and this Unit Attention
condition is generated.
The CLEAR TASK SET is issued by any INIT.
An INIT reports an error when the QErr bits of MODE SELECT parameter
page A are set to "01'.
However, the INITs that have issued CLEAR TASK SET and the INITs that have
reported errors do not enter the Unit Attention condition holding state.
2.4.2 Response and release condition at UNIT ATTENTION condition hold state
A Unit Attention condition generated by the HDD due to the occurrence of one of
the above-mentioned events is held for each INIT individually, and this condition
is held until the Unit Attention condition is cleared by an INIT which is the object
of the hold issues the commands specified below.
When the HDD is holding the Unit Attention condition, if it receives a command
from an INIT which is the object of the hold, one of the operations below,
depending on the type of command issued, is performed by the HDD.
