HP B- Accelerators Linux manual Fio-bugreport, Fio-beacon device options

Page 41

You can specify multiple IO Accelerator devices. For example, /dev/fct1 /dev/fct2 indicates the second and third IO Accelerator devices installed on the system. You can also use a wildcard to indicate all IO Accelerator devices on the system.

For example, /dev/fct*

Option

Description

 

 

-c

Attach only if clean.

-q

Quiet: disables the display of the progress bar and

 

percentage.

fio-beacon

Description

The fio-beaconutility enables all three LEDs on, to identify the specified IO Accelerator device.

IMPORTANT: This utility enables the LEDs on, unless you select the -0option.

Syntax

fio-beacon <device> [options]

where <device> is the name of the device node (/dev/fctx), where x indicates the card number: 0, 1, 2, and so on. For example, /dev/fct0 indicates the first IO Accelerator device installed on the system.

Options

Description

 

 

-0

Off: Turns off the three LEDs

 

 

-l

On (default): Enables the three LEDs on

-p

Prints the PCI bus ID of the device at <device> to standard output. Usage and error information

 

may be written to standard output rather than to standard error.

fio-bugreport

Description

Prepares a detailed report of the device for use in troubleshooting problems. The results are saved in the /tmp directory in a file that indicates the date and time the utility was run.

Example

/tmp/fio-bugreport-20100121.173256-sdv9ko.tar.bz2

Syntax

fio-bugreport

NOTE: If the utility recommends that you contact Fusion-io support, disregard that message and contact HP support (http://www.hp.com/support) instead.

Sample output

-bash-3.2# fio-bugreport /tmp/fio-bugreport-20090921.173256-sdv9ko ~ Collecting fio-status -a
