HP PCIe IO Accelerators for ProLiant Servers - Manual (Page 97)

Utilities 97
• %: Percentage of device for user data
• t/T: Number of terabytes to format
• g/G: Number of gigabytes to format
• m/M: Number of megabytes to format
• For example, setting the size as either 90% or 72 GB on an 80 GB PCIe IO Accelerator both result
in the same capacity for user data—72GB.
• -u Quiet: Disables the display of the progress percentage and spinning activity icon.
fio-pci-check
Description
Checks for errors on the PCI bus tree, specifically for IO Accelerators. This utility displays the current status
of each IO Accelerator. It also prints the standard PCI Express error information and resets the state.
It is normal to see a few errors (perhaps as many as five) when fio-pci-check is initially run.
Subsequent runs should reveal only one or two errors during several hours of operation.
The driver must not be loaded to run this utility. To unload the driver, run the following command at a
command prompt:
modprobe –r iomemory_vsl
Syntax
fio-pci-check [-d <value>, -f, -i, -r, -v, -y, -h]
Options
• -d <value>: 1 = Disable the link; 0 = bring the link up.
• -f: Scan every device in the system.
• -i: Print the device serial number.
• -r: Force the link to retrain.
• -v: Verbose: Print extra data about the hardware.
• -y: "Yes" is forced when user is asked to continue.
fio-read-lebmap (Linux only)
Dumps the current LEB map for an IO Accelerator and writes the map to standard output.
fio-read-lebmap [-d <value>, -f, -i, -r, -v, -h]
<device-node>
Device node for the HP StorageWorks IO Accelerator board (/dev/fctx), where x indicates the board
number (0, 1, 2, and so forth). For example, /dev/fct0.
