Configuring a Storage Array
47
The following commands also return information about a storage array:
• show storageArray autoConfigure ("Show Storage Array Autoconfigure" on
page 204)
• show controller NVSRAM ("Show RAID Controller Module NVSRAM" on
page 201)
• show storageArray unreadableSectors ("Show Storage Array Unreadable
Sectors" on page 207)
• show virtualDiskCopy sourceCandidates ("Show Virtual Disk Copy Source
Candidates" on page 212)
• show virtualDiskCopy targetCandidates ("Show Virtual Disk Copy Target
Candidates" on page 212)
• show virtualDisk performanceStat ("Show Virtual Disk Performance
Statistics" on page 212)
For descriptions of the show commands, including examples of the
information returned by each command, see "Script Commands" on
page 105. Other commands can help you learn about your storage array. To
see a list of the commands, see "Commands Listed by Function" on page 108.
These commands are organized by the storage array activities that the
commands support. (Examples include virtual disk commands, host
commands, enclosure commands, and others).
Saving a Configuration to a File
NOTICE:
When you write information to a file, the script engine does not check to
determine if the file name already exists. If you choose the name of a file that already
exists, the script engine writes over the information in the file without warning.
After you have created a new configuration or if you want to copy an existing
configuration for use on other storage arrays, you can save the configuration
to a file. To save the configuration, use the save storageArray configuration
command. Saving the configuration creates a script file that you can run on
the command line. The following syntax is the general form of the command:
save storageArray configuration file=" filename "
[(allconfig | globalSettings=(TRUE | FALSE)) |
virtualDiskConfigAndSettings=(TRUE | FALSE) |
hostTopology=(TRUE | FALSE) | lunMappings=(TRUE |
FALSE)]
