The priority of rebuild versus I/O operations is specified with 1..5, where 1 is
more resources and 5 the least. Setting the value to 1 gives maximum
processing time to rebuilds rather than I/O. Setting the value to 5 gives
maximum processing time to I/O rather than rebuilds.
Enabling and disabling rebuild schedules is only for 9000 models, however
the rebuild rate (1..5) applies to all controllers.
7000- and 8000-series controllers have only one setting for Task Rate; it
applies to both rebuild and verify rates. This rate is not persistent following a
reboot for 7000- and 8000-series controllers.
/c
x
set verify=enable|disable|1..5
This command enables or disables all verify background task slots on
controller /cx and (when enabled) sets the priority of verification versus I/O
operations. When enabled, verify tasks will only be run during the time slots
scheduled for verifies. If a verify is taking place when the schedule is enabled,
it will be paused until the next scheduled time.
The priority of verify versus I/O operations is specified with 1..5, where 1 is
more resources and 5 the least. Setting this value to 1 implies fastest verify,
and 5 implies fastest I/O.
Enabling and disabling verify schedules is only for 9000 models, however the
verify rate (1..5) applies to all controllers.
/c
x
set selftest=enable|disable
[task=UDMA|SMART]
This command enables or disables all selftest tasks or a particular
selftest_task (UDMA or SMART).
Enabling and disabling selftest is only for 9000 models. 7/8000 models have
the same internal schedule, but it is not viewable or changeable.
Example:
//localhost> /c0 selftest=enable task=UDMA
enables UDMA selftest on controller c0.
Note: When enabling the verify schedule you must also remember to enable the
autoverify setting for the units to be verified. For more information see
“/cx/ux set autoverify=on|off” on page 68.
