SCSI_START(8) SG3_UTILS SCSI_START(8) NAME scsi_start - start one or more SCSI disks SYNOPSIS scsi_start [--help] [--verbose] [--wait] DEVICE [DEVICE]* DESCRIPTION This bash shell script calls the sg_start utility on each given DEVICE. The purpose is to spin up (start) each given DEVICE. OPTIONS Arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as well. -h, --help print out the usage message then exit. -v, --verbose increase level or verbosity. -w, --wait wait for the spin up (start) on each given DEVICE to complete. The default action is to do each start in immediate mode.
