Configuring a Storage Array
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.
When you save the information to a file, you can use the information as a
record of your configuration and as an aid during recovery.
To return a brief list of the storage array features and components, use the
summary parameter. The command is similar to the following example:
client>smcli 123.45.67.89 -c "show storageArray
summary;"
The summary information is also returned as the first section of information
when you use the profile parameter.
The following show commands return information about the specific
components of a storage array. The information returned by each of these
commands is the same as the information returned by the show storageArray
profile command, but is constrained to the specific component. (The
following commands are not complete commands. For information about a
command, see the referenced section next to the command.)
