MegaCLI (lsi hw raid control) sees your tc and raised you a few million awful flags.

After working with it almost daily for years I'm finally fluent in MegaCLI. I can even understand the --help for the most part. Time to get a new job I guess.

Nah.. Just time to relearn it all with StorCLI instead.

Oh fair enough but in the context of Linux command lines I think MegaCLI is genuinely one of the worst UX designs ever. Up until recently (post Balmer), Microsoft didn’t heavily emphasize the CLI for most things so a bad UX is not surprising.

I'm pretty sure MegaCLI was written by someone who used to write software for digital phone switches.

Ah, my old friend MegaCLI. Simultaneously the most verbose and the most useless --help output I've ever seen from a command-line program.
