NAME

       scsi_satl - check SCSI to ATA Translation (SAT) device support

SYNOPSIS

       scsi_satl [--help] [--log] [--quiet] [--verbose] DEVICE

DESCRIPTION

       This  bash shell script calls several SCSI commands on the given DEVICE that is assumed to
       be an ATA device behind a SCSI to ATA Translation (SAT) layer (SATL). 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_satl.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.
