Installing Linux 59
Installation of Intel RAID Controller SRCMR StorCon
Monitoring Utility
Installation of StorCon from the Intel RAID Controller SRCMR
CD-ROM
1. If you are installing the StorCon from the Intel RAID Controller SRCMR CD-ROM, then
place the Intel RAID Controller SRCMR CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive and mount the
CD-ROM:
$ mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
2. Copy the StorCon utility archive to /usr/sbin:
$ cp /mnt/cdrom/linux/install/storcon-2.00.gz /usr/bin/storcon-2.00.gz
3. Unpack the archive file and rename:
$ gunzip -d /usr/sbin/storcon-2.00.gz
$ mv /usr/sbin/storcon-2.00 /usr/sbin/storcon
Using StorCon Monitoring Utility
To run the StorCon utility, type ‘storcon’ at any prompt. Select the interface (Linux if locally run,
TCP/IP sockets if remote).
While using StorCon from the Linux system console, the StorCon screen may be overwritten by
system/kernel log messages. To avoid this, execute the following command (entered at the prompt
from a console session):
dmesg -n 1
When finished using StorCon, the console log level can be set back to the default level using the
following command:
dmesg -n 7
This behavior is not observed if the StorCon utility is used from an X-windows terminal window.
