At least one device must be specified. When no other options are supplied, .Nm detached becomes a daemon, by default waking up every 30 seconds to poll each device for a change in state. .Pp The following options may be used: .Bl -tag -width Ds .It Fl p Ar poll-interval Change the interval of polling from the default 30 seconds to the number of seconds specified. .It Fl d Instead of detaching and becoming a daemon, stay attached to the controlling terminal and log changes there as well as via the system logger. .El .Pp The user may then use .Xr getencstat 8 to get more detailed information about the state of the over enclosure device or objects within the enclosure device. .Sh FILES .Bl -tag -width /dev/sesN -compact .It Pa /dev/ses\fIN\fR SCSI Environmental Services Devices .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr ses 4 , .Xr getencstat 8 , .Xr setencstat 8 , .Xr setobjstat 8 , .Xr syslogd 8 .Sh BUGS This is something of a toy, but it is better than nothing.
