Subject: Suggestions for testing SAS cables via sg3_utils
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2015 12:25:03 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5509D10F.2020601@aeoncomputing.com> (raw)

Greetings,

Does anyone have an effective way of testing SAS cabling in a Linux
environment without using a block storage device?

Something like reading/writing to a buffer in an expander (LSI). Something
that could stress all four lanes of a multilane cable. Like a SAS 
equivalent of a floodping between a SAS initiator and a SAS expander to 
stress the cable.

Thanks,

--Jeff
