+.Sh NAME
+.Nm ch
+.Nd SCSI media-changer (juke box) driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "ch? at scsibus?"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for SCSI juke boxes.
+It allows many slots of media to be multiplexed between a number of drives.
+.Pp
+A SCSI adapter and a logical scsibus must also be separately configured
+into the system before a SCSI changer can be configured.
+.Pp
+As the SCSI adapter is probed during boot, the SCSI bus is scanned for devices.
+Any devices found which answer as
+.Qq Changer
+type devices will be
+.Dq attached
+to the
+.Nm
+driver.
+The first device found will be attached as
+.Em ch0
+and the next
+.Em ch1 ,
+etc.
+It is also possible to specify what
+.Nm
+unit a device should come on-line as; refer to
+.Xr scsi 4
+for details on kernel configuration.
+.\" .Sh IOCTLS
+.\" The following
+.\" .Xr ioctl 2
+.\" call applies to the changer.
+.\" It is defined in the header file
+.\" .Aq Pa sys/chio.h .
