Lifecycle Controller Integration―Best Practices Specification
99
Set desired RAID controller FQDD, physical disk FQDDs, and RAID level
parameters by editing script
Script: CheckVDValues.win
A) The Lifecycle Controller remote service must be in a “ready” state before executing any
other WSMAN commands. The GetRSStatus() method or the GetRemoteServicesAPIStatus()
method may be used depending on the version of the LC Management registered profile.
B) GetControllerViews(): ENUMERATE the DCIM_ControllerView class to view all available
RAID FQDDs. See section 2.2 for a definition of
ENUMERATE .
C) GetPhysicalDiskViews(): ENUMERATE the DCIM_PhysicalDiskView class to view all
available physical disk FQDDs. See section 2.2 for a definition of
ENUMERATE .
D) CheckVDValues(): Invoke this method to return desired data
The output will contain the available sizes and default values for the given RAID level and
set of physical disks
14.11 Create a Virtual Disk
View the RAID stacking workflows in Section 4 for a comprehensive example.
14.12 Determine Available Physical Disk Drives to be used as a
Hot-spare
The GetDHSDisks() method is used to determine possible physical disks to be used as a
hotspare.
Applies to: LC1.5.0+
