DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
       The  iieelleemm  program will send an INITIALIZE ELEMENT STATUS
       command to the named device.

       The required --aa argument must be used to select a specific
       ordinal SCSI address (see _l_i_b_s_c_s_i(8)).

       Some  changers  support  the ability to initaliaze element
       status for a range of elements. The command used for  this
       is the Vendor Unique EXABYTE changer command:

                 IINNIITTIIAALLIIZZEE EELLEEMMEENNTT SSTTAATTUUSS ((wwiitthh rraannggee))

       (command   opcode   0xE7).    The  optional  arguments  --rr
       eellaaddddrr..nneell can be used if a changer supports  this,  where
       _e_l_a_d_d_r  is  the  starting decimal address (in the changers
       numbering) of the element to start from, and  _n_e_l  is  the
       number of elements of status to read.
