NAME
sesd —
monitor SCSI Environmental
Services Devices
SYNOPSIS
sesd |
[-d]
[-t
poll-interval] device
[device ...] |
DESCRIPTION
sesd monitors SCSI Environmental Services (or SAF-TE) devices
for changes in state and logs such changes changes to the system error logger
(see
syslogd(8)). At least one
device must be specified. When no other options are supplied,
sesd detaches and becomes a daemon, by default waking up
every 30 seconds to poll each device for a change in state.
The following options may be used:
-
-
- -d
- Instead of detaching and becoming a daemon, stay attached
to the controlling terminal and log changes there as well as via the
system logger.
-
-
- -t
poll-interval
- Change the interval of polling from the default 30 seconds
to the number of seconds specified.
The user may then use
getencstat(8) to get more
detailed information about the state of the over enclosure device or objects
within the enclosure device.

This is something of a toy, but it is better than nothing.
