NAME¶
scsi_mandat - check SCSI device support for mandatory commands
SYNOPSIS¶
scsi_mandat [
--help] [
--log] [
--quiet]
[
--verbose]
DEVICE
DESCRIPTION¶
This bash shell script calls several SCSI commands on the given
DEVICE.
These SCSI commands are considered mandatory (although that varies a little
depending on which standard/draft the
DEVICE complies with). The
results of each test and a pass/fail count are output.
OPTIONS¶
Arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as well.
- -h, --help
- print out the usage message then exit.
- -L, --log
- the output to stderr (from each SCSI command executed) is appended to a
file called 'scsi_mandat.err' in the current working directory.
- -q, --quiet
- the amount of output is reduced and typically only the pass/fail count is
output.
- -v, --verbose
- increase level or verbosity.
EXIT STATUS¶
The exit status of this script is the number of "bad" errors found. So
an exit status of 0 means all mandatory SCSI commands worked as expected.
