How To Install sg3_utils on Rocky Linux 8
In this tutorial we learn how to install sg3_utils on Rocky Linux 8. sg3_utils is Utilities for devices that use SCSI command sets
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install sg3_utils on Rocky Linux 8.
What is sg3_utils
Collection of Linux utilities for devices that use the SCSI command set. Includes utilities to copy data based on “dd” syntax and semantics (called sg_dd, sgp_dd and sgm_dd); check INQUIRY data and VPD pages (sg_inq); check mode and log pages (sginfo, sg_modes and sg_logs); spin up and down disks (sg_start); do self tests (sg_senddiag); and various other functions. See the README, CHANGELOG and COVERAGE files. Requires the linux kernel 2.4 series or later. In the 2.4 series SCSI generic device names (e.g. /dev/sg0) must be used. In the 2.6 series other device names may be used as well (e.g. /dev/sda). Warning and the incorrect usage of them may render your system inoperable.
We can use yum or dnf to install sg3_utils on Rocky Linux 8. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install sg3_utils.
Install sg3_utils on Rocky Linux 8 Using dnf
Update yum database with dnf using the following command.
sudo dnf makecache --refresh
After updating yum database, We can install sg3_utils using dnf by running the following command:
sudo dnf -y install sg3_utils
Install sg3_utils on Rocky Linux 8 Using yum
Update yum database with yum using the following command.
sudo yum makecache --refresh
After updating yum database, We can install sg3_utils using yum by running the following command:
sudo yum -y install sg3_utils
How To Uninstall sg3_utils on Rocky Linux 8
To uninstall only the sg3_utils package we can use the following command:
sudo dnf remove sg3_utils
