NAME

6       scsi_mandat - check SCSI device support for mandatory commands
7

SYNOPSIS

9       scsi_mandat [--help] [--log] [--quiet] [--verbose] DEVICE
10

DESCRIPTION

12       This bash shell script calls several SCSI commands on the given DEVICE.
13       These SCSI commands are considered mandatory (although  that  varies  a
14       little depending on which standard/draft the DEVICE complies with). The
15       results of each test and a pass/fail count are output.
16

OPTIONS

18       Arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as well.
19
20       -h, --help
21              print out the usage message then exit.
22
23       -L, --log
24              the output to  stderr  (from  each  SCSI  command  executed)  is
25              appended to a file called 'scsi_mandat.err' in the current work‐
26              ing directory.
27
28       -q, --quiet
29              the amount of output is reduced and typically only the pass/fail
30              count is output.
31
32       -v, --verbose
33              increase level or verbosity.
34

EXIT STATUS

36       The exit status of this script is the number of "bad" errors found.  So
37       an exit status of  0  means  all  mandatory  SCSI  commands  worked  as
38       expected.
