The characteristics of + host-aware and host-managed zoned block devices are + described in the ZBC (Zoned Block Commands) and ZAC + (Zoned Device ATA Command Set) standards. These standards + also define the "drive-managed" zone model. However, + since drive-managed zoned block devices do not support + zone commands, they will be treated as regular block + devices and zoned will report "none". |
