Reference
Note:
Information contained throughout this chapter that describes
usage only for the 3ware 9000 series products does not work with
3ware 7000 or 8000 series controllers.
This chapter provides detailed information about using the primary command
syntax for the 3ware CLI. (The legacy syntax is still supported for a limited
time. For details see, “Legacy CLI Syntax Reference” on page 83.)
Throughout this chapter the examples reflect the interactive method of
executing 3ware CLI.
