Software tools for SCSI/FC/iSCSI/SAS/SAN device emulation and testing
This site offers software solutions for storage device technologies.
The software solutions can run in both SCSI initiator and SCSI target modes.
The SCSI initiator mode solutions allow execution of SCSI commands
for different device types in manual, automated, and programmatic ways.
The SCSI target mode solutions provide emulation of virtual storage
devices of different types and virtual media of arbitrary capacity.
Visual SCSI Explorer
Visual SCSI Explorer application runs on Windows operating system platforms
and is intended for advanced SCSI device testing. The application can handle
SCSI devices connected to the host computer through such storage buses as
Parallel SCSI, Fibre Channel (FC), Internet SCSI (iSCSI), Serial Attached SCSI
(SAS), Storage Area Network (SAN), virtual, and others.
Application visualizes the host SCSI controller and device configuration as
controller-device tree and properties. It is possible to rescan SCSI buses and
to dynamically update the SCSI device list. Application functional interface is
optimized for Media Changer, Tape Drive, Disk, and Multi-Media devices. Raw CDB
feature allows user to execute any SCSI command for SCSI device of any type.
Application visualizes the process of SCSI command execution, logs the command
parameters, the outbound and inbound command data and parses them.
Application automates routine SCSI device test tasks by using scripting
languages, service procedures, and test procedures.

Virtual Storage Device Emulator
Virtual Storage Device Emulator emulates virtual storage controller, virtual
storage devices, and virtual media on Windows operating system platforms.
Virtual Storage Device Emulator supports iSCSI transport protocol through
network interfaces.
Virtual Storage Device Emulator emulates the direct access block devices,
sequential access devices, optical memory devices, and media changer devices.
Virtual devices store the data in the files located in local file system.
Virtual devices can be configured as having either fixed or removable medium.
Virtual media can be loaded to and unloaded from virtual devices manually
or in automated way.
Virtual Storage Device Emulator emulates the virtual storage controller device
for the operating system and other software to access the virtual storage devices.
The virtual storage devices that are emulated through virtual storage controller
are visible only on the computer the Virtual Storage Device Emulator is running
on.

Chobik SCSI Programming Interface
Chobik SCSI Programming Interface product provides suitable application
programming interface (API) to applications written in C/C++ language for
handling host bus adapters and storage devices on Windows operating system
platforms.
The programming interface is based on Windows native SCSI Pass Through interface.
It allows user-mode applications to enumerate host bus adapters and storage devices,
and execute SCSI commands. The programming interface supports storage devices
of all types. Application is responsible for proper handling of the storage device.
Multiple independent applications can handle multiple storage devices in parallel.

SCSI CLI for ASPI
The SCSI CLI for ASPI product allows the user to execute the SCSI commands
from the command prompt via the ASPI on the Windows operating system platforms.
The product is optimized for Tape Drive and Media Changer devices.
The product is available in both End User and OEM versions.

SCSI Pass Through JNI helper
The SCSI Pass Through JNI (SPT JNI) software package provides the programmatic interface for Java applications on the Windows and Linux operating system platforms for handling SCSI adapters and devices. For Windows operating system platform the native SCSI Pass Through (SPT) programmatic interface is used. For Linux operating system platform the native SCSI Generic (SG) programmatic interface is used.
The package allows Java application to enumerate SCSI host bus adapters and SCSI
devices, and to execute SCSI commands for the SCSI devices. Programmatic interface
of the package is simple and introduces no limitation on the CDB and data structure.
The maximum size of data is limited by the maximum transfer length parameter of
the SCSI host bus adapter and depends on the adapter model and type. For Windows 8
and later operating system platforms the large CDB (up to 256 bytes) and
bidirectional data transfer are supported. The maximum sense data length is 255
bytes. The package gives the Java application all the advantages of handling the
SCSI devices at relatively low system level.
