List
Displays the AFU-supported RAID controllers installed on your computer. Also displays the ID numbers
assigned to each controller.
You don’t have to restart the computer after completing this command.
This example shows a typical system response to a
LIST
command:
A:\> AFU LIST
Adaptec Flash Utility V4.0-0 B5749 (c)Adaptec Inc. 1999–2005.
All Rights Reserved.
Controllers Detected and Recognized:
Controller #0 (03:05:00) Adaptec RAID 51645
Save
Saves the contents of a RAID controller's flash in a UFI file. The name of the UFI file is based on the
controller type and can't be changed.
You must restart the computer following a
SAVE
command.
The command syntax for the
SAVE
command is:
AFU SAVE [/C<Controller ID>] [/D <UFI File Path>]
These switches are available:
• /C <Controller ID>—One or more RAID controller IDs representing the set of RAID controllers on
which to perform the specified command. The default is 0; if the computer has multiple RAID
controllers, the AFU defaults to controller 0 unless you specify otherwise.
For example:
To specify a single RAID controller ID:
/C 0
To specify multiple IDs separated by commas:
/C 0,2
To indicate all RAID controllers:
ALL
If you are using multiple RAID controllers, you must specify the controller you want by using the /C
switch; otherwise, the AFU displays an error message and exits.
• /D <UFI File Path>—Specifies the path where the UFI files are located. If you do not specify the /D
switch, the AFU looks for (or creates) its UFI files in the default location.
You cannot specify the name of a UFI file, only its path. UFI filenames are predefined, based on the
RAID controller type.
In this example, the AFU saves flash contents from RAID controller 0 to a UFI file in the current
default drive and directory:
A:\> AFU SAVE /C 0
In this example, the AFU saves flash contents from Controller 1 to a UFI file in C:\UFI_FILES:
A:\> AFU SAVE /C 1 /D C:\UFI_FILES
Update
Updates the flash components of one or more RAID controllers on your computer from the flash image
data in a UFI file. You must restart the computer following an
UPDATE
command.
The command syntax for the
UPDATE
command is:
AFU UPDATE [/C<Controller ID>] [/D <UFI File Path>]
This example shows a typical system response after an update.
A:\> AFU UPDATE /C 0
Adaptec Flash Utility V4.0-0 B5749
