About the Script Commands
You can use the script commands to configure and manage a storage array.
The script commands are distinct from the command line interface (CLI)
commands; however, you enter the script commands using the command line
interface. You can enter individual script commands, or run a file of script
commands. When entering an individual script command, include it as part
of a CLI command. When running a file of script commands, include the file
name as part of a CLI command. The script commands are processed by a script
engine that performs the following functions:
• Verifies command syntax
• Interprets the commands
• Converts the commands to the appropriate protocol-compliant
commands, which is, in turn, run by the RAID controller module
• Passes the commands to the storage array
At the storage array, the redundant array of independent disks (RAID)
controller modules in the storage array runs the script commands.
The script engine and script commands support the storage array
configuration and management operations listed in Table 2-1.
