Server roll-out functions
The following table describes the IPSSEND server roll-out functions.
Function What it does Command and supported operating systems
autosync This function synchronizes a new logical
drive. This computes and writes the parity
data, verifying that the data redundancy for
the logical drive is correct. Because this
function runs in the background, you can
use the logical drive immediately.
Note: Use this function only on RAID
level-5 logical drives.
IPSSEND AUTOSYC 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
Supported operating systems: Windows, NetWare, OS/2,
Linux, OpenServer, UnixWare, Open UNIX, and DOS
backup This function saves information concerning
a controller configuration to a diskette or to
a physical drive. The information includes
the following:
v BIOS settings
v Array and logical drive definitions
v Cluster parameters
Note: The ServeRAID controller
configuration must be valid.
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
v NOPROMPT is an optional parameter that overrides
the user prompt
Supported operating systems: Windows, NetWare, OS/2,
Linux, OpenServer, UnixWare, Open UNIX, and DOS
copyld This function copies the content of one
logical drive (the source) to another logical
drive (the target).
Note: The size of the target logical drive
must be greater than or equal to the size of
the source logical drive.
IPSSEND COPYLD controller source target
[NOPROMPT]
where:
v controller is the ServeRAID controller number (1–12)
v source is the source logical drive number
v target is the target logical drive number
v NOPROMPT is an optional parameter that overrides
the user prompt
Supported operating system: DOS
init This function initializes the first 0.5 MB of a
logical drive. This process erases the
partition tables; you will lose access to data
on the logical drive.
Note: (Linux only) Restart your server to
clear the previous partition tables from
memory.
IPSSEND INIT 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
Supported operating systems: Windows, NetWare, OS/2,
Linux, OpenServer, UnixWare, Open UNIX, and DOS
restore This function loads a configuration from a
file stored on a diskette or on a hard disk.
This operation overwrites the existing
configuration information and BIOS settings
stored on a ServeRAID controller.
Note: The configuration must be a valid
configuration file created using the
IPSSEND backup function.
IPSSEND RESTORE 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
v NOPROMPT is an optional parameter that overrides
the user prompt
Supported operating systems: Windows, NetWare, OS/2,
Linux, OpenServer, UnixWare, Open UNIX, and DOS
