+.Ar command
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+utility provides status monitoring and management functions for devices attached
+to the
+.Xr mlx 4
+driver.
+.Pp
+Controller names are of the form "mlxN" where N is the unit number of the controller.
+Drive names are of the form "mlxdN" where N is the unit number of the drive.  Do not
+specify the path to a device node.
+.Pp
+.Bl -tag -width status
+.It status
+Print the status of controllers and system drives.  If one or more drives are specified,
+only print information about these drives, otherwise print information about all controllers
+and drives in the system.  With the
+.Fl v
+flag, display much more verbose information.
+With the
+.Fl q
+flag, do not print any output.  This command returns 0 if all drives tested are online, 1
+if one or more drives are critical and 2 if one or more are offline.
+.It rescan
+Rescan one or more controllers for non-attached system drives (eg. drives that have been
+detached or created subsequent to driver initialisation).  If the
+.Fl a
+flag is supplied, rescan all controllers in the system.
+.It detach
+Detach one or more system drives.  Drives must be unmounted and not opened by any other
+utility for this command to succeed.  If the
+.Fl a
+flag is supplied, detach all system drives from the nominated controller.
+.It check
+Initiate a consistency check and repair pass on a redundant system drive (eg. RAID1 or RAID5).
+The controller will scan the system drive and repair any inconsistencies.  This command
+returns immediately; use the 
+.Ar status
+command to monitor the progress of the check.
+.It config
+Print the current configuration from the nominated controller.  This command will be 
+updated to allow addition/deletion of system drives from a configuration in a future
+release.
+.It help
+Print usage information for
+.Ar command.
+.Sh BUGS
+The
+.Ar config
+command does not yet support modifying system drive configuration.
+.Pp
+Error log extraction is not yet supported.

+The mlxcontrol utility was written by
