NAME
rasctl - Sends management commands to the rascsi process
SYNOPSIS
rasctl -l | -i ID [-u UNIT] [-c CMD] [-t TYPE] [-f FILE]
DESCRIPTION
rasctl Sends commands to the rascsi process to make configuration adjustments at runtime or to check the sta
tus of the devices.
Either the -i or -l option should be specified at one time. Not both.
You do NOT need root privileges to use rasctl.
Note: The command and type arguments are case insensitive. Only the first letter of the command/type are
evaluated by the tool.
OPTIONS
-l List all of the devices that are currently being emulated by RaSCSI, as well as their current status.
-i ID ID is the SCSI ID that you want to control. (0-7)
-u UNIT
Unit number (0 or 1). This will default to 0. This option is only used when there are multiple SCSI
devices on a shared SCSI controller. (This is not common)
-c CMD Command is the operation being requested. options are:
attach: attach disk
detach: detach disk
insert: insert media (Magneto-Optical and CD only)
eject: eject media (Magneto-Optical and CD only)
protect: Write protect the media (Magneto-Optical only)
When the command is omited, rasctl will default to the 'attach' command
-t TYPE
Specifies the type of disk. If this disagrees with the file extension of the specified image, the TYPE
argument is ignored. Available drive types are:
hd: Hard disk (SCSI or SASI)
mo: Magneto-Optical disk)
cd: CD-ROM
bridge: Bridge device (This is only applicable to the Sharp X68000)
-f FILE
Path to the disk image file. See the rascsi(1) man page for allowable file types.
