+.Sh NAME
+.Nm ses
+.Nd SCSI Enclosure Services
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "ses* at scsibus?"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for monitoring the various environmental sensors
+present in SCSI enclosures using the SCSI Enclosure Services command set.
+The hardware monitoring is accessed via the
+.Va hw.sensors
+.Xr sysctl 8
+variable.
+.Pp
+SCSI devices have a fairly high level interface to the system and talk to it
+via a SCSI host adapter (e.g.\&
+.Xr ahc 4 ) .
+A SCSI adapter must also be separately configured into the system before a
+SCSI enclosure can be configured.
+.Pp
+When the SCSI adapter is probed during boot, the SCSI bus is scanned for
+devices.
+Any SCSI-2 devices of type
+.Dq Enclosure service
+or SCSI-3 devices of type
+.Dq Processor
+will be attached to the
+.Nm
+driver.
+.Pp
+SES compliant devices can provide an arbitrary set of sensors which may
+include the following types:
+.Bl -column "Sensor" "Units" "Typical" -offset indent
+.It Sy "Sensor" Ta Sy "Units" Ta Sy "Typical Use"
+.It Li "temp" Ta "uK" Ta "temperature"
+.It Li "fan" Ta "RPM" Ta "fan"
+.It Li "psu" Ta "On/Off" Ta "power supply"
+.It Li "doorlock" Ta "On/Off" Ta "door lock"
+.It Li "alarm" Ta "On/Off" Ta "enclosure alarm"
+.El
+.Pp
+Sensor data is updated every 10 seconds.
+.Pp
+An enclosure may provide environmental information using an alternative
+command set to the SCSI Enclosure Services used by this driver.
+Enclosures using the SCSI Accessed Fault-Tolerant Enclosure command set
+may be monitored by the
+.Xr safte 4
+driver.
