-d Outputs the PCI ID for the device in the
vendor:device:subvendor:subdevice format.
-l Displays the disk LUN.
-s Displays the size of the disk, in bytes.
-n | -no_showdisk Do not use the Altiris showdisk command to sort the disk list.
-v | --version Outputs the hpshowdisk utility version.
-w Displays the disk WWID in 16-digit hexadecimal format.
-h | --help Prints this help.
NOTE: The -w and -c do not run correctly if the hbaapi.dll file is not present in the utilities
directory under the SSTK repository tree. In order to obtain that DLL, see the following issue in
section 7 of the readme file:
"HPshowdisk utility and SetHBABootDevice action do not work properly
if hbaapi.dll is not present"
