NAME

gdbad − ISI test disk for bad sector rand reassign

SYNOPSIS

/etc/gdbad

DESCRIPTION

Like badd144(8), gdbad is a menu-driven, stand-alone utility used to map out bad blocks.  Unlike bad144(8), however, gdbad uses a built-in SCSI block reassignment scheme. 

To use gdbad, type gdbad at a shell prompt, then press RETURN.    gdbad asks you to answer a series of questions.  Usually a default answer will be displayed after the question.  Simply press RETURN to enter the default answer to a question.
