About the Script Commands
Statement data is in the form of
attribute=value
(such as
raidLevel=5
), an
attribute name
(such as
batteryInstallDate
), or an
operation name
(such as
consistencyCheck
).
Script Command Synopsis
Because you can use the script commands to define and manage the different
aspects of a storage array (such as host topology, physical disk configuration,
RAID controller module configuration, virtual disk definitions, and disk
group definitions), the actual number of commands is extensive. The
commands, however, fall into general categories that are reused when you
apply the commands to the different aspects of a storage array.
Table 2-3 lists the general form of the script commands and provides a
definition of each command.
virtualDiskCopy
Target virtual disk and, optionally, the source
virtual disk user labels
diskGroup
Virtual disk group number
