Using the
raid5 Command
The raid5 command sends storage management and configuration requests
to an application programming interface (API) on the CHALLENGE server.
For the raid5 command to function, the agent—an interpreter between the
command line interface and the CHALLENGE RAID storage system—must
be running.
The synopsis of the raid5 command is
raid5 [-vp] [-d
device
]
parameter
[
optional_arguments
]
In this syntax, variables mean:
-v Enables verbose return.
-p Parses the raid5 command without calling the API. If the
string does not parse correctly, an error message is printed
to stderr; otherwise there is no output.
-d device Target RAID device. Use raid5 getagent for a list of RAID
devices. This switch must be present for all raid5
management and configuration commands unless the
environment variable indicates otherwise. This switch
overrides an environment variable.
Note:
Appendix B is a complete alphabetical listing of raid5 parameters.
