2. The number of physical drives you add must be equal to the
number of physical drives that were in the logical drive defined
originally.
3. The physical drives must be added while the server is on.
4. When a logical drive is imported, all partitions from that logical
drive are also imported automatically. You cannot import a
single partition selectively.
5. You must manually assign drive letters after the import
completes.
Supported operating systems: Windows NT, Windows 2000
Note: The flashcopy import function is not available in a cluster
configuration.
Command: ipssend flashcopy controller import options
where:
v
controller is the ServeRAID controller number (1–12)
v
options is one of the following:
– ALL to specify all logical drives
– n to specify a valid logical drive number (1–8)
Server roll-out functions
The IPSSEND server roll-out functions include the following:
autosync Use the autosync function to synchronize a new logical drive. The
purpose of synchronizing logical drives is to compute and write the
parity data on the selected drives. Synchronizing a logical drive
verifies that the data redundancy for that logical drive is correct.
Use this function only on RAID level-5 logical drives. This function
starts a background synchronization so you can use the logical
drive immediately.
Supported operating systems: Windows NT, Windows 2000, OS/2,
NetWare, Linux, OpenServer, UnixWare and DOS
Command: ipssend autosync controller logicaldrive [noprompt]
where:
v
controller is the ServeRAID controller number (1–12)
v
logicaldrive is the logical drive number (1–8)
v
noprompt is an optional parameter that overrides the user
prompt
backup Use the backup function to save a ServeRAID controller
configuration and BIOS settings to a diskette or to a physical drive.
The ServeRAID controller configuration must be valid.
Supported operating systems: Windows NT, Windows 2000, OS/2,
NetWare, Linux, OpenServer, UnixWare and DOS
Command: ipssend backup controller filename [noprompt]
where:
v
controller is the ServeRAID controller number (1–12)
v
filename is the path and file name where the configuration is to
be written
