1 Overview Unless otherwise specified, the term P9000 in this guide refers to the following disk array: • P9500 Disk Array NOTE: The raidcom commands described in this guide are supported only on the P9000 disk arrays. All other commands are supported on both the P9000 and the XP24000/XP20000, XP12000/XP10000, SVS200, and XP1024/XP128 disk arrays. The GUI illustrations in this guide were created using a Windows computer with the Internet Explorer browser.
Item Description At the transaction mode, these checks are performed when these are evaluated as normal before executing script files. Also, the progress of the check and execution are displayed in the console. Precheck function Executes the command checking only (processing is not executed even if no problem found on the checking result). This is available to specify in both line-by-line mode and transaction mode (see “Command execution modes” (page 10)).
Command execution modes RAID Manager provides two command execution modes: transaction mode that executes by specifying a script file with the -zt option, and line-by-line mode that executes a command row-by-row for the configuration setting commands (raidcom commands). The transaction mode can execute the following checking. • Context check: This check is executed when a script file is specified by the -zt option.
