A SCSI Environmental Services device enclosure may be either in the state of being OOKK, or in one or more of the states of IINNFFOORRMMAATTIIOONNAALL, NNOONN--CCRRIITTIICCAALL, CCRRIITTIICCAALL oorr UUNNRREECCOOVVEERRAABBLLEE states. These overall states reflect a summary of the states of each object within such a device (such as power supplies or disk drives).
With the -v option, the status of all objects within the device is printed, whether OOKK or not. Along with the status of each object is the object identifier.
The user may then use setencstat(8) to try and clear overall device status, or may use setobjstat(8) to set specific object status.
