omconfig storage controller action=testalarm controller=1
omconfig Reset Controller Configuration
Does my controller support this feature? See "Supported Features."
Use the following omconfig command syntax to reset the controller configuration.
Complete Syntax
omconfig storage controller action=resetconfig controller=id
where id is the controller ID as reported by the omreport storage controller command.
In some circumstances, you may receive a warning message if this command will delete the system or boot partition. You can override this warning by using
the [force=yes] parameter. In this case, the syntax is as follows:
omconfig storage controller action=resetconfig controller=id [force=yes]
Example Syntax
For example, to reset the configuration on controller 1, you would enter:
omconfig storage controller action=resetconfig controller=1
omconfig Create Virtual Disk
Does my controller support this feature? See "Supported Features."
Before creating a virtual disk, you should be familiar with the information in "Considerations Before Creating Virtual Disks."
The omconfig syntax for creating a virtual disk has several parameters. You must specify the following parameters:
l Controller (controller=id)
l RAID level (raid=<c| r0| r1| r5| r6 | r10| r50 | r60>)
l Size (size=<number | max | min>)
l Physical disk is specified as either:
pdisk=connector:enclosureID:portID
or
pdisk=connector:targetID
See "pdisk=<PDISKID> Parameter" and "Multiple Targets" for more information on specifying physical disks.
The omconfig command supplies default values for any of the other parameters that you do not specify.
Complete Syntax
omconfig storage controller action=createvdisk controller=id raid=<c| r0| r1 | r5| r6 | r10| r50 | r60> size=<number | max | min>
pdisk=<PDISKID> [stripesize=< 2kb| 4kb| 8kb| 16kb| 32kb| 64kb| 128kb>] [cachepolicy=<d | c>] [diskcachepolicy=<d | e>] [readpolicy=<ra | nra |
ara | rc| nrc>] [writepolicy=<wb| wt| wc| nwc | fwb>] [name=<string>] [spanlength=<n>]
CAUTION: Resetting a configuration permanently destroys all data on all virtual disks attached to the controller. If the system or boot partition
resides on these virtual disks, it will be destroyed. You may receive a warning message if this command will result in deleting the system or boot
partition. However, this warning message is not generated in all circumstances. You should be certain that you are not deleting the system or
boot partition or other vital data when using this command.
NOTE: Resetting the controller configuration does not remove a foreign configuration. To remove a foreign configuration, use the "omconfig Clear
Foreign Configuration" command. See "Clear Foreign Configuration" for more information.
NOTE: For RAID 10 on SAS controllers with firmware version 6.1 and later, spanlength is an optional parameter (default=2). spanlength should be an
even number and should be lesser than or equal to half the number of physical disks specified in size.
