HP XP P9000 RAID Manager Reference Guide (T1610-96061, January 2014)

DescriptionOption
Suppresses messages to be displayed when this command is executed. It is used to execute this
command from a user program. This option must be specified at the beginning of a command
argument. The command execution log is not affected by this option.
-nomsg
Specifies the following data type that assumes the target volumes as Oracle database. If [type]
is not specified, then this option will disable all of the checking.
-vt [type]
• redo8: The target volumes sets the parameter for validation checking as Oracle redo log files
(including archive logs) prior Oracle9I. This option sets <bsize> to 1(512bytes) or
2(1024bytes).
• data8: The target volumes sets the parameter for validation checking as Oracle data files
(including control files) prior Oracle9I.
• redo9: The target volumes sets the parameter for validation checking as Oracle redo log files
(including archive logs) for Oracle9IR2 or later. This option sets <bsize> to 1 (512 bytes) or
2 (1024 bytes).
• data9: The target volumes sets the parameter for validation checking as Oracle data files
(including control files) for Oracle9IR2 later. For Oracle for Tru64 or Windows, set the
parameter in the init.ora file to '_HARD_PROTECTION = TRUE '. If not so, a parameter for
validation must be changed by using the following '-vmf we' option: raidvchkset -vt data9 -vmf
we
• rd10g: The target volumes sets the parameter for validation checking as Oracle ALL files
(including redo and data and RMAN backup piece) for Oracle10gR2 or later. This option
sets <bsize> to 1 (512 bytes) or 2 (1024 bytes). This option sets to the low 5 bits DBA for
checking regarding CHK-F2.
Specifies the data block size of Oracle I/O and a region on a target volume for validation
checking.
-vs <bsize> [slba]
[elba]
• <bsize> is used when specifying the data block size of Oracle I/O, in units of 512 bytes.
<bsize> is able to specify between 1 (512 bytes) and 64 (32 KB) (effective size for Oracle
is also 1-64).
• [slba] [elba] is used when specifying a region defined between Start_LBA (0 based) and
End_LBA on a target volume for checking, in units of 512 bytes.
• [slba] [elba] can be specified in hexadecimal (by addition of '0x ') or decimal notation. If this
option is not specified, then a region for a target volume is set as all blocks (slba=0,elba=0).
Specifies the following guard type to the target volumes for Data Retention (Open LDEV Guard
on XP1024/XP128 Disk Array). If [type] is not specified, this option will release all of the guarding.
-vg [type]…[rtime]
The following values are available to specify on [type].
• inv: The target volumes are concealed from SCSI Inquiry command by responding 'unpopulated
volume'.
• sz0: The target volumes replies with 'SIZE 0' through SCSI Read capacity command.
• rwd: The target volumes are prohibited from reading and writing.
• wtd: The target volumes are prohibited from writing.
• svd: If the target volume is SMPL, it is protected from paircreate (from becoming an SVOL). If
the target volume is PVOL, it is protected from pairresync restore or pairresync swaps(p). If
the target volume is SVOL_PSUS(SSUS), it is protected from pairresync synchronous copy.
svd option can be used with the other option (inv, sz0, rwd, wtd) in parallel. For example, if
you want to protect the absolute volume from the writting executed by the copy series program
product and the host access, set the both wtd and svd options. The only setting of wtd option
cannot protect the absolute volume from the writing by the copy processing of the copy series
program product.
[rtime]: Specifies the retention time, in units of day. If [rtime] is not specified, the default time
defined by the storage system is used. The default time is 'zero' in XP1024/XP128 Disk Array
