################################################
#
#  Spin down the given SCS disk(s).
#
#  SCSI disks (or disks that understand SCSI commands)
#  are assumed. By default, the immediate bit is set so the
#  command should return immediately. The disk however will
#  take 10 seconds or more to spin down. The '-w' option
#  causes each stop to wait until the disk reports that it
#  has stopped.
#
#  This script assumes the sg3_utils package is installed.
