16 RAID Storage Management
The remote RAID configuration allows you to remotely query and configure the Hardware RAID of the
system. The RAID profile extends the management capabilities of referencing profiles by adding the
capability to represent the configuration of RAID storage. The RAID storage is modeled as collections
of attributes where there are collections for the storage adaptors, physical disk drives, logical disks,
end enclosures and parent-child relationships between the collections. Additionally, there is a
configuration service that contains all the methods used to configure the RAID storage.
Profile and Associated MOFs:

The RAID Inventory contains the following attributes:
DCIM_RAIDEnumeration (16.1)
DCIM_RAIDInteger (16.3)
DCIM_RAIDString ( 16.5)
DCIM_ControllerView (16.7)
DCIM_PhysicalDiskView (16.9)
DCIM_VirtualDiskView (16.10)
DCIM_EnclosureView (16.11)
16.1 Listing the RAID Inventory-Enumeration Class
The RAID Inventory has these attributes: DCIM_RAIDEnumeration (this section),
DCIM_RAIDInteger (Section 16.3), and DCIM_RAIDString (see Section 16.5).
Enumerate the DCIM_RAIDEnumeration class to display all the RAID controllers and virtual
disk attributes in a system.
Enumerate the DCIM_RAIDEnumeration class with the following parameters and syntax:
EXAMPLE:
wsman enumerate http://schemas.dmtf.org/wbem/wscim/1/cimschema/
2/root/dcim/DCIM_RAIDEnumeration
-h $IPADDRESS -V -v -c dummy.cert -P 443
-u $USERNAME -p $PASSWORD -j utf-8 -y basic
