• To reset, clear, and import the RAID configuration to the controller.
racadm raid importconfig:<Controller FQDD>
racadm raid resetconfig:<Controller FQDD>
racadm raid clearconfig:<Controller FQDD>
Input
• -o — Specifies the optimized version.
• -p — Specifies the property name.
• --refkey — Specifies the controller or enclosure FQDDs.
• -rl — Sets the RAID level.
– r0 — RAID 0-Striping
– r1 — RAID 1-Mirroring
– r5 — RAID 5-Striping with Parity
– r6 — RAID 6-Striping with Extra Parity
– r10 — RAID 10-Spanned Striping with Mirroring
– r50 — RAID 50-Spanned Striping with Parity
– r60 — RAID 60-Spanned Striping with Extra Parity
• -wp{wt|wb} — Sets the write policy to Write Through or Write Back
• -rp {nra|ra|ara} — Sets the read policy to No Read Ahead, Read Ahead, Adaptive Read
Ahead
• -ss — Specifies the stripe size to use.
• -pdkey:<PD FQDD list> — Specifies the physical disk drive to use in the virtual disk.
• -dcp — Sets the Disk Cache Policy in the Virtual Disk.
– enabled — Allows the virtual disk to use the cache.
– disabled — Does not allow the virtual disk to use the cache.
– default — Uses the default cache policy. For SAS drives, use the disabled option and
for SATA drives, use the enabled option by default.
• -name <VD name> — Specifies the name of the virtual disk.
• -size <VD size> — Specifies the size of each virtual disk.
– b — Specifies the size in bytes
– k — Specifies the size in kilobytes
– m — Specifies the size in megabytes
– g — Specifies the size in gigabytes
– t — Specifies the size in terabytes
• -sc — Number of spans in a virtual disk (required for multi-span RAID level).
NOTE:
– The default value for multi-span RAID levels is 2 and for basic RAID levels is 1.
– For hybrid RAID levels such as RAID10 and RAID50, -sc option is mandatory.
– The value for-sc option can be 0 only for RAID10.
– After creating the virtual disk, create a job and to apply the virtual disk configuration,
restart the server operating system.
• -T10PIEnable — Creates a virtual disk with protection information.
• -key <Key id> — Specifies the key id.
• -passwd <passphrase> — Specifies the passphrase.
