scsimon \- Acts as a data capture tool for all traffic on the SCSI bus. Data is stored in a Value Change Dump (VCD) file.

.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B scsimon
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B scsimon
|
|
monitors all of the traffic on the SCSI bus, using a PiSCSI device. The data is cached in memory while the tool is running. A circular buffer is used so that only the most recent 1,000,000 transactions are stored. The tool will continue to run until the user presses CTRL-C, or the process receives a SIGINT signal.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The logged data is stored in a file called "log.vcd" in the current working directory from where scsimon was launched.

Currently, scsimon doesn't accept any arguments.

To quit scsimon, press Control + C.
