Appendix B Information Commands Results
The following shows some of the output from diagnostic commands available through the CLI or the
Advanced page of the ExpressNAV interface.
DriveInfo [sled ID] [drive ID]
Displays information about all disk drives or detailed information about a specific disk drive. Detailed
information about an individual drive is obtained by supplying a drive identifier.
VD ID is the Virtual Disk ID
Driveinfo for a JBOD configuration, verbose result
