Abstract
A method for disconnecting a channel of a SCSI (small computer system interface) controller from a SCSI bus is disclosed. The method includes receiving a signal that prompts the SCSI controller to assume a mode that the SCSI controller is not configured to accommodate. Further, the method includes disabling a channel of the SCSI controller by entering a state that disconnects the channel of the SCSI controller from the SCSI bus.
