| Abstract |
SCSI provides a diverse range of peripherals for attachment to a wide range of computing
equipment. Some system manufacturers have developed approaches for SCSI attachment
which are widely followed, increasing the applications available for the attachment of SCSI
peripherals. In markets where no standard method of attachment exists, however, variations
between third party sellers have made it nearly impossible for end users to attach more than
one SCSI peripheral to one host bus adapter.
In an effort to broaden the application base for SCSI peripherals, an ad hoc industry group of
companies representing system integrators, controllers, peripherals, and semiconductors
decided to address the issues involved. That effort has evolved into this International
Standard. Its purpose is to define a method whereby multiple
environments may adopt a common procedure for the support of SCSI devices.
The CAM provides a structured method for supporting peripherals with the software (e.g.
device driver) and hardware (e.g. host bus adapter) associated with any computer.
