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.

NOTES
       If a large number of disks are spun up at the same time	(i.e.  without
       the --wait option) then the power supply	may be overloaded.

EXIT STATUS
       The  exit  status  of this script is 0 when it is successful. Otherwise
       the exit	status is that of the last sg_start utility  called.  See  the
       sg3_utils(8) man	page.
