How to get the SCSI address (ACSL) for a scsi disc?

NTDEV

Hi all,

What is the correct way to retrieve the scsi address of a given scsi disc?
I’m looking for a way to find a scsi disc at a specific scsi address. I was
enumerating all the scsi devices then retrieve and parse their location
string. However, I found the location of the device is not always the same
as scsi address. So, can any one tell me, what is the exactly way to trieve
the scsi address? If use IOCTL, which IOCTL exactly? Thanks in adavance.
