Command Description
ARRAYINDEX 3
Using VADIAG on HP-UX
ARRAYINDEX
Selects the array to be tested
Syntax
arrayindex [arrayindex]
Description
This command sets the ARRAYINDEX variable to an array controller’s device index number. The
array controller is chosen from the numbers displayed by the dispmap command. The
ARRAYINDEX variable is an index to the array to be tested, while the LOOPPAIR,
ENCLOSURE, and SLOT variables select the appropriate component within the array.
Changing the value of ARRAYINDEX causes the value of LOOPPAIR, ENCLOSURE, and SLOT
to be set to NOT SET. You must set these variables to an appropriate value.
Options
arrayindex – A device index number returned by the dispmap command.
Examples
To display the current value of ARRAYINDEX:
VADIAG> arrayindex
ArrayIndex: 0
To set the value of ARRAYINDEX to the array controller whose device index number is 1.
VADIAG> arrayindex 1
4CLRLOG
CLRLOG
Clears device logs.
Syntax
clrlog
Description
This command clears the selected device logs. Use either the testdevice or fru command to select
controller or disk logs within the array.
Example
VADIAG> clrlog
CREATELUN 5
Using VADIAG on HP-UX
CREATELUN
Creates a Logical Unit Number (LUN).
Syntax
createlun
Description
This command creates a LUN on the selected array, which provides a virtual disk to the host.
Examples
To create a LUN:
VADIAG> createlun
Do you want to create a Snapshot LUN (y/[n])? n
Enter the number of the LUN to create: 7
Enter the LUN size in the form <capacity>MB or <capacity>GB: 10MB
LUN 7 was successfully created.
To create a snapshot LUN:
VADIAG> createlun
Do you want to create a Snapshot LUN (y/[n])? y
Enter the number of the Snapshot LUN to create: 8
Enter the number of the Snapshot Parent LUN: 7
LUN 8 was successfully created.
6DELETELUN
DELETELUN
Deletes a Logical Unit Number (LUN).
Syntax
deletelun
Description
This command deletes a LUN on the selected array. All information stored on the LUN is lost and
the previously used physical storage is freed.
Example
VADIAG> deletelun
Enter the number of the LUN to delete: 8
*************************************************************************
* D A T A L O S S W A R N I N G!
*************************************************************************
* Continuing with DELETELUN WILL DEFINITELY RESULT IN DATA LOSS. All
* information stored on the LUN to be deleted will be lost and the
* physical storage previously used will be freed.
***********************************************************************
LUN 8 Selected.
Delete selected LUN (y/[n])? y
LUN 8 was successfully deleted.
DESCRIBE 7
Using VADIAG on HP-UX
DESCRIBE
Displays configuration information for an array.
Syntax
describe [-c [FruLocation] | -d [FruLocation] | -e [FruLocation] | -f | -l [LUN] | -s | -m | -?]
Description
This command displays configuration information for the selected array. Use the arrayindex
command to select the array.
Options
This command supports the following options:
-c FruLocation Display controller information, or display information for the controller
identified by FruLocation.
-d FruLocation Display disk information, or display information for the disk identified by
FruLocation.
-e FruLocation Display enclosure information, or display information for the enclosure
identified by FruLocation.
-f Display a summary of all elements in the array.
-l LUN Display the current LUN information, or display information for the LUN
identified by LUN.
-m Display the missing disks (use -v for verbose mode).
-s Display miscellaneous subsystem settings.
-? Display expanded usage message.
Examples
To display information for the array controllers:
VADIAG> describe -c
To display information for disk 2 in the main enclosure:
VADIAG> describe -d m/d2
8DESCRIBE
To display configuration information for the selected array:

DISPFILES 9
Using VADIAG on HP-UX
DISPFILES
Displays firmware information.
Syntax
dispfiles
Description
This command displays a list of all the firmware files found on the LIF (Logical Interchange
Format) volume. The list contains the following information:
•File name. Firmware file’s name.
•Intended Product ID. Firmware file's intended product.
•Rev. New revision contained in the firmware file.
•Size. Exact byte size of the firmware image.
Example
VADIAG> dispfiles
10 DISPMAP
DISPMAP
Displays the device map.
Syntax
dispmap
Description
This command displays a list of all the array controllers found on the system. The list includes the
following fields:
•Array Indx. Device index number which is used by other VADIAG commands to reference a
specific array controller. An asterisk (*) next to this field indicates this controller is selected for
testing.
•Path. Logical path to each array. The path construct is the same as the PDC and MAPPER's
path. An array with dual controllers has two different logical paths. Therefore, two different
device index numbers will access the same array.
•Product ID. Product identification. This is what MAPPER displays as the product string.
•Rev. The disk drive’s firmware revision.
•Size. The approximate size of the LUN in either megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB), or terabytes
(TB). The size of the LUN might not match the information specified by the vendor because of
differences in calculation methods.
Example
VADIAG> dispmap
