Scott said, /dev/rst0, which suggests 2.2.8 and pre-CAM?

scsi(8) manpage says under examples:

     To simply re-probe the first scsi bus:

           root# scsi -f /dev/ssc -p

but I believe to do this one has to compile the Super SCSI
device into the kernel:

pseudo-device   ssc             #super scsi
