+# Informational and example scsi_id.config file for use with scsi_id. 
+#
+
+# General syntax is:
+#
+# lower or upper case has no affect on the left side. Quotes (") are
+# required if you need spaces in values. Model is the same as the SCSI
+# INQUIRY product identification field. Per the SCSI INQUIRY, the vendor
+# is limited to 8 bytes, model to 16 bytes.
+#
+# The first maching line found is used. Short matches match longer ones,
+# if you do not want such a match space fill the extra bytes. If no model
+# is specified, only the vendor string need match.
+#
+# The "option" line is searched when scsi_id first starts up (for use with
+# hotplug during boot).
+#
+# options=<any scsi_id command line options>
+#
+# vendor=string[,model=string],options=<per-device scsi_id options>
+
+#
+# If you normally don't need id's, black list everyone:
+#
+options=-b
+
+#
+# Then white list devices on your system that have correct and useful id's:
+#
+vendor=someone, model=nicedrive, options=-g
+
+# If you have all good devices on your system use, mark all as good:
+
+## options=-g
+
+# Then black list any offenders. Missing entries here could be dangerous
+# if you rely on the id for naming or multi-path configuration!
+
+## vendor=ELBONIA, model=borken, options=-b
