I like this solution for two reasons:
- it uses perl (meaning it's a script and I do not need to compile
it)
- it takes a different approach to what I was going to do (not that I
had a plan, but I had not thought about using bconsole for this)
My version of the script differs slightly:

I don't need sudo, but I do this:
open BC, "echo \"status storage=${ARGV[1]}\" |
/usr/local/sbin/bconsole -c /usr/local/etc/bconsole.conf |"
I include the configuration file in the -c argument. no sudo
required.
IDEALLY, one could specify the hostname and SD name on the command
line. At present, the hostname is just informational and is not
actually used.
Thanks.
