Example:
//localhost>> /c0 set autodetect=off disk=all
Setting Auto-Detect on /c2 to [off] for all disks/ports... Done.
Usage Scenario:
If you are hot-plugging a large number of drives at the same time and are
concerned that you might overload the power supply, you might use this
command as follows:
1
Issue the command (set autodetect=off) to disable automatic detection of
the ports for staggered spin-up.
2
If the ports are not empty, pull the drives out of the specified ports.
3
Insert (or replace) the drives at the ports specified.
4
Issue the command (set autodetect=on) to enable auto detect of the ports
with the newly inserted drives.
The preceding steps would spin up the newly inserted drives in a staggered
manner. Please note that the command takes longer for ports that do not have
drives inserted, since the controller allows time for the empty ports to
respond.
