6.2 General Use Commands

The following commands, listed alphabetically, describe or perform general functions.

FirmwareRestart

Causes a warm restart of the Diamond Storage Array.

Immediate: FirmwareRestart

Help

Displays a list of available commands. Type ‘help’ followed by a command name to display detailed command-specific information.

Immediate: Help [Command Name]

RestoreConfiguration

Restores configuration to either the default configuration or the configuration last saved into non-volatile memory. The saved option will undo any changes made since the last save.

Immediate: RestoreConfiguration [DefaultSaved]

SaveConfiguration

If the restart option is selected, the Diamond will cycle its power. The norestart option will save changes without restarting. Please note: certain modifications require a SaveConfiguration command and a system restart. If required, the return Ready. * will be displayed after the return for the modification. You may make several changes through commands and SaveConfiguration before implementing a restart, but once you have restarted the Diamond, all the command changes created

before the restart and saved will be implemented. Restart or no Restart parameter is optional

Immediate: SaveConfiguration <Restart NoRestart>

SystemSN

Stores the Diamond Storage Array serial number. The serial number may be 1-16 characters.

Set syntax: set SystemSN [n]

Requires a SaveConfiguration command

Get syntax: get SystemSN

VerboseMode

Specifies the detail of verbal feedback for the Command Line Interface. Disabling this option removes parameter names from ‘get’ commands and removes descriptions from ‘help’ commands.

Default: enabled (returns have parameter information)

Set syntax: set VerboseMode [enabled disabled]

Get syntax: get VerboseMode

ZoneCommit

Commits the current Planned Zone Configuration, making it the persistent, Active configuration. To complete this procedure, the ZoneState command must be entered as enabled to activate the zone before using the ZoneCommit command.
