VA Virtual Front Panel Commands

July, 2002

Command Function

help Displays a description of each command.

setup Performs Virtual Front Panel configuration.

dsp Displays subsystem status.

cfg Performs subsystem configuration (LUN creation).

mgr Performs subsystem management operations.

fmt Performs an subsystem format.

rbld Performs rebuild operations.

recover Performs NVRAM recovery operations.

secure Performs security operations.

log Displays Logs

scsi Performs SCSI command for provided CDB.

Usage Notes

To maintain consistency with earlier versions of the VFP, all commands can be prefaced with "vfp".

For help with a specific command, use the -? Option. For example, setup -?

For command recall, type “<” or “>”.

Several of the vfp commands require multiple options. Use the options in the order in which they appear in this

reference.

Command Options and Arguments Description

setup -e {on | off}

-r <value>

-c <value>

-b <int>

-e: Sets character echo

-r: Sets the number of rows:

<value>: range 5 – 1000

-c: Sets the number of columns:

<value>: ranger 40 - 8000

-b: Sets baud rate

<int> : 0, 1, 2, or 3

for 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600

Note: A firmware reset will restore the

default value of 9600.

dsp dsp (no argument follows)

-c [m/c1 | m/c2]

-d [fruLocation]

-L [LUN ID]

-s

-e

-f

Displays general information about the

subsystem.

-c: display controller information:

m/c1: controller 1, m/c2 controller 2

-d: display drive information:

[fruLocation] m/d#

-L: display LUN information (default for

all existing luns).

[LUN ID]: specify a requested LunID

-s: display subsystem settings

-e: enclosure information

-f: list of discovered FRUs

cfg cfg -L <LUN ID> -a <capacity> [{G|g}|{K|k}] –g <RG Id>

To Create a LUN requires three

parameters, LUN ID, capacity and RD

Id.

-L <LUN ID>: specify LUN ID to be

created.

-a <capacity>: specify LUN capacity.

Capacity is default to MB.

If followed by ‘K’ or ‘k’, the capacity is in

kilobytes and must be a multiple of

512.

If followed by ‘G’ or ‘g’, the capacity is in

gigabytes.

-g <RG ID>: redundancy group id. For

VA 7100 set to 1, for VA 7400 set to 1

or 2.

For valid number of LUNs to create,

check dsp –s for CREATE LUN LIMIT.

cfg -L <LUN ID> -d -L followed by –d: deletes LUN, no

need to specify capacity, just LUN ID.

mgr -s {shut | start}

-R {full | partial}

-L <loop id> -c {1|2} -hp {1|2}

-t {1 | 2 | 4} –c {1|2} -hp {1|2}

-S {1 | 2} –c {1 | 2} -hp {1|2}

-os {hpux | nt | win2k | linux | solaris | aix | netware |

generic | tru64 | openVMS | mpe | solarisCluster} –c {1 | 2}

-hp {1|2}

-B {autoraid | raid1}

-O { on | off }

-q <queue full threshold> –c {1 | 2} -hp {1|2}

-ds { on | off }

-p {on | off }

-V <Revision>

-s: Shutdown or restart the disk array

-R: Reset the disk array

-L: Set FC port loop ID for host port

(-hp) on specified controller (-c).

-t: Set the topology for host port

(-hp) on specified controller (-c).

Valid Arguments:

1- Private Topology

2 - Public Topology

4- Direct Fabric Attached Topology.

-S: Set FC port speed for host port

(-hp) on specified controller (-c).

Valid Arguments:

1- 1 GBit/sec Data Rate

2- 2 GBit/sec Data Rate

-os: Set host behavior for host port

(-hp) on specified controller (-c).

-B: sets array RAID level (AutoRaid |

RAID 1).

-O: set enable optimize policy on/off.

-q: set queue full threshold for host port

(-hp) on specified controller (-c). Valid

values 0 to 4096.

-ds: set disable secondary path

presentation

The -ds option determines whether the

array makes the non-optimal path to

LUNs visible to hosts. When set to ON,

secondary path presentation is enabled

and all LUNs are “visible” through all

ports on all controllers. When set to

OFF, each LUN will be “visible” only on

the controller that is the optimal

controller for that LUN. The optimal

controller is the one associated with the

redundancy group of which the LUN is a

part.

-p: Enable/disable prefetch.

-V: Set volume set revision. Valid

arguments:

1 – For HP01, HP02, HP11, HP13

2 – For HP14, HP15 and greater

fmt No options Perform array format (will destroy all

user data). User will be prompted with a

yes/no. The word ‘yes’ must be

entered completely. Otherwise the

format command will be canceled.

rbld -p

-a {on | off}

-p: Displays status/progress of a

subsystem rebuild.

-a: enables or disables autorebuild

recover No options

-s

-ps {on | off}

Perform a recover process. Will ask for

user’s verification to proceed.

-s: returns the recoverability status or

the disk array, as well as the status of

the recovery progress.

-ps: Recover with parity scan set to

either on or off.

secure -R

-e

-d

-R: Resets the password to AUTORAID.

-e: enables security.

-d: disables security.

log -p [number of events ] [-seq <start sequence number>]

-ps [number of events ] [-seq <start seqence number>]

-pc [number of events] [-seq <start seqence number>]

-clear

-p: Display a given number of events

starting with the specified sequence

number.

-ps: Display a given number of

significant events (stored in page2)

starting with the specified sequence

number.

-pc: Display a given number of critical

events(stored in page5) starting with the

specified sequence number.

Use only the required options with no

arguments, e.g. just “log –ps”, will

display the first and last sequence

number in the log.

If only number of events is omitted, all

the corresponding events after the start

sequence number will be displayed.

If only start sequence number omitted,

the specified number of events will be

displayed starting at beginning of the

log.

-clear: Clear controller event log

scsi -cdb <cdblen> <cdb bytes…> <direction> [ -cdbcrc

<cdb crc>]

[ -lun <lunId> ]

[ -data <data len> <data bytes…> [ -datacrc <data crc> ] ]

direction can be: nodata|datain|dataout
