Parameter Description
standalone disk groups intact, set this parameter to
FALSE
.
retainRepositoryMembers When you delete a virtual disk, the associated repository
virtual disk is deleted by default. However, when the
retainRepositoryMembers
is set to
TRUE
, the
repository virtual disk is retained. For normal virtual disks,
this parameter has no effect.
Notes
When you use the
allVirtualDisks
parameter, this command deletes virtual disks until all of the virtual disks are
removed or until an error is encountered. If an error is encountered, this command does not try to delete the remaining
virtual disks. Deleting virtual disks from different disk groups is possible. All of the disk groups that become empty are
deleted if you set the
removeDiskGroup
parameter to
TRUE
.
Diagnose RAID Controller Module
This command runs diagnostic tests on the RAID controller module.
The
testID
parameter takes the following options, which you can use to verify that a RAID controller module is
functioning correctly:
• 1 — Reads the test
• 2 — Performs a data loop-back test
• 3 — Writes the test
The diagnostic tests consist of loop-back tests in which data is written to physical disks and read from the physical
disks.
