Script file options

Options in HP SSA script files are divided into the following categories:

“Control category” (page 34)

“Controller category” (page 34)

“Array category” (page 37)

“Logical Drive category” (page 38)

“HBA category” (page 41)

Each category has several scripting options, but you do not always need to assign values to every
option. HP SSA can use default values in some instances, while in other instances, a listed option
might not be relevant for a particular configuration or scripting mode.

The options for each category are listed in the following table and described in more detail in the
remainder of this section.

Use these options to define the overall behavior of HP SSA when it

only once in a script file and must be listed first.

this category in any order.

can configure the controllers identically or individually. If you define each
