Following are the adapter device driver syntax conventions:

• Command-line contents are case-insensitive.
  
• All command-line options begin with the slash character (/).
  
• The exclamation character (!) is a negation operator; that is, it negates the option that follows it. The colon character (:) indicates that a list of one or more unit IDs follows the option.
  
• The alphabetic d character (<d>) indicates a decimal digit.
  
• The alphabetic h character (<h>) indicates a hexadecimal digit.
