Example 5: To Create a Hot Spare Pool
This example shows how to create a hot spare pool that contains an array member disk
drive and a hot spare disk drive. The attributes of the disks are all set to their default
values.
Type the command:
> ssaraid -C -l ssa0 -t spare_pool -n pool_B1 -s pdisk0 pdisk3
where:
-C specifies that this operation is a create operation.
-l ssa0 specifies that RAID Manager ssa0 is to be used.
-t spare_pool specifies that a spare pool is to be created.
-n pool_B1 specifies the name of the hot spare pool that is to be created. The
format of the name must match the pool_XY format, where X defines the SSA loop
and has a value A or B, and Y is a number 1 through 31.
-s pdisk... specifies the free pdisk that is to become the member disk of the hot
spare pool. Valid members are RAID array member disk drives and hot spare disk
drives.
Note: Not all RAID managers provide support for the hot spare pool function.
Example 6: To List All Defined SSA Objects
This example shows how to list all the defined SSA objects that are at present
connected in summary format to a particular RAID manager.
Type the command:
> ssaraid -I -z -l ssa0
where:
-I specifies that this operation is a list operation.
-z specifies that the output is to be presented in summary format.
-t raid_5 specifies that a RAID-5 array object is to be created.
-l ssa0 specifies that all SSA objects that are connected to RAID Manager ssa0 are
to be listed.
A result similar to that shown here is displayed:
pdisk0 0004AC506C4000D member n/a 4.5GB Physical disk
pdisk1 0004AC506D6D00D member n/a 4.5GB Physical disk
pdisk2 0004AC50A44200D member n/a 2.3GB Physical disk
pdisk3 0004AC515EA400D free n/a 4.5GB Physical disk
hdisk5 900335FE80C84CK good 9.0GB RAID-5 array
