Title: SCSI Tools (Text Mode)

Description:
A collection of useful tools for users of SCSI systems:

* scsiinfo: Allows access to some internals of SCSI devices, such as
defect lists or the so-called mode pages, which control, for
example, the behavior of the device's cache or error management.

* sdparm: Like scsiinfo, but with support for many more mode
(sub)pages and a better command line interface.

* scsiformat: A low-level formatting tool for SCSI disks.

* scsidev: If your SCSI config changes from time to time, for
example, because you have external devices which are not always
switched on or connected, the kernel's mapping to the device
nodes is not always the way you would expect it to be. This
program creates a mapping which remains unchanged in most of
these cases.

* rescan-scsi-bus.sh: A script that scans the SCSI bus and
dynamically adds and, optionally, removes devices.

* sg3_utils: A collection of small, useful tools based on the sg
interface (v3) that give info on the SCSI bus, copy data, and
more.

* lsscsi: Lists SCSI devices on your system.

Warning: Some of these tools access the internals of your system and
misuse of them may render your system inoperable.

Note: scsiinfo comes with a graphical user interface which can be found
in the xscsi package.
