RAIDCFG Command successful!
To list all the disks
attached to a particular
controller
raidcfg adisk -
c=slotid
Lists all the disks attached to the controller. The
slot ID is obtained from the first command.
Record the drive location of the disks for later
reference.
To create a virtual disk
with all the default
settings
raidcfg -ctrl -
ac=cvd -c=slotid -
ad= x:y,x:y,...
Creates a virtual disk of maximum available size for
type RAID 0. RAID 0 is the default.
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> and the array disks in
<-ad=...> are obtained from the first two
commands.
To create a virtual disk
of a certain size with all
the default settings
raidcfg -ctrl -
ac=cvd -c=slotid -
ad= x:y,x:y,... -
sz=5GB
Creates a virtual disk of 5 GB size for type RAID 0.
RAID 0 is the default.
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> and the array disks in
<-ad=...> are obtained from the first two
commands.
To create a virtual disk
of a certain size and
make it RAID 1
raidcfg -ctrl -
ac=cvd -c=slotid -
ad= x:y,x:y -
sz=5GB -r=1
Creates a virtual disk of 5 GB size for type RAID 1.
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> and the array disks in
<-ad=...> are obtained from the first two
commands.
To create a virtual disk
of a certain size and
make it RAID 5
raidcfg -ctrl -
ac=cvd -c=slotid -
ad=
x:y,x:y,x:y,... -
sz=5GB -r=5
Creates a virtual disk of 5 GB size for type RAID 5.
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> and the array disks in
<-ad=...> are obtained from the first two
commands.
To create a virtual disk
of a certain size and
make it RAID 1 with a
hot spare
raidcfg -ctrl -
ac=cvd -c=slotid -
ad= x:y,x:y -
sz=5GB -r=1 -
fd=x:y
Creates a virtual disk of 5 GB size for type RAID 1.
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> and the array disks in
<-ad=...> are obtained from the first two
commands.
The option <-fd> stands for failover drive and
requires the drive location of the drive you want
the dedicated hot spare to be in. The drive location
is obtained from the second command.
To create a virtual disk
of RAID 10
raidcfg -ctrl -
ac=cvd -c=slotid -
ad=
x:y,x:y,x:y,x:y -
r=10
Creates a virtual disk of max size for type RAID 10.
The slot ID in <-c=slotid> and the array disks in
<-ad=...> are obtained from the first two
