Description
Operation Code
The first byte of a SCSI CDB contains an operation code. The operation
code of the CDB has a
Group Code
field (bits 7-5) and a
Command Code
field (bits 4-0). The 3-bit Group Code field provides for eight groups of
command codes. The 5-bit Command Code field provides for 32
command codes in each group. A total, therefore, of 256 possible
operation codes exist. Operation codes are defined in the SCSI command
standards. The group code for CDBs specified therein correspond to the
length of the command descriptor as below:
