3ware 9000 Series Serial ATA Controller CLI Guide
Installing the 3ware CLI on Linux and FreeBSD
3ware CLI can be installed or run directly from the 3ware software CD, or the
latest version can be downloaded from the 3ware web site,
http://www.3ware.com
.
To install the 3ware CLI, copy tw_cli to the directory from which you want to
run the program. CLI is located on the 3ware CD in
/packages/cli/freebsd
or
/packages/cli/linux.
Online manual pages are also available in nroff and html formats. These are
located in
/packages/cli/tw_cli.8.html
or
tw_cli.8.nroff.
You will need to be root or have root privileges to install the CLI to
/usr/sbin
and to run the CLI.
Filename: tw_cli
To install the CLI to a different location, change
/usr/sbin/
to the desired
location.
Notes:
The installation location needs to be in the environment path for
root to execute the CLI without using complete paths (i.e., if
installed to
/usr/sbin/
, you can type
tw_cli
on the command
line, otherwise you will have to type the complete path:
/home/user/tw_cli
The 3ware CLI comes in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Be sure to
copy the correct version for the version of the operating system you
are using.
