This will send a SCSI READ CAPACITY command to each +\fIDEVICE\fR. +.PP +The default action of this script is to send the 10 byte cdb READ +CAPACITY(10) command to each \fIDEVICE\fR. If a response indicates +the number of blocks is greater than or equal to '2**32 \- 1' then +the READ CAPACITY(16) is sent and its response is output. +.SH OPTIONS +Arguments to long options are mandatory for short options as well. +.TP +\fB\-b\fR, \fB\-\-brief\fR +shortens the output to two hexadecimal numbers, both prefixed by '0x'. +The first number is the number of blocks available and the second is +the size of each blocks in bytes (e.g. '0x12a19eb0 0x200'). If an error +is detected '0x0 0x0' is output and the script continues if there are +more \fIDEVICE\fRs. +.TP +\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR +print out the usage message then exit. +.TP +\fB\-l\fR, \fB\-\-long\fR +the default is to send the READ CAPACITY(10) command (i.e. the 10 byte +cdb variant). When this option is given the READ CAPACITY(16) command +is sent. The latter command yields more information in its response. +.TP +\fB\-v\fR, \fB\-\-verbose\fR +increase level or verbosity. +.SH EXIT STATUS +The exit status of this script is 0 when it is successful. Otherwise the +exit status is that of the last sg_readcap utility called. See +the sg3_utils(8) man page. +.SH AUTHORS +Written by D.
