SCSI target devices provide a number of SCSI diagnostic pages. These can be used by a Send Diagnostic command to tell a target device to run a specialised self-test. The Receive Diagnostic Results command is used where the results from the self-test operation are non-trivial.
Most of the common SCSI devices such as disk-drives support only one or two diagnostic pages. SES devices can support many diagnostic pages.

Famous quotes containing the word pages:
“I am carrying out my plan, so long formulated, of keeping a journal. What I most keenly wish is not to forget that I am writing for myself alone. Thus I shall always tell the truth, I hope, and thus I shall improve myself. These pages will reproach me for my changes of mind.”
—Eugène Delacroix (1798–1863)
