Error mode information

If the IO Accelerator driver is in minimal mode, read-only mode, or write-reduced mode when the fio-statuscommand is run, the following differences occur in the output:

Attach status is Status unknown: Driver is in MINIMAL MODE

The reason for the minimal mode state appears. (For example, Firmware is out of date. Update firmware.)

Geometry and capacity information not available appears.

No media health information appears.

fio-update-iodrive

Description

IMPORTANT: The IO Accelerator devices must be detached before running the fio-update-iodrivecommand. To detach the devices requires rebooting with auto-attach disabled or using fio-detach. For details, see "fio-detach (on page 32)."

The fio-update-iodriveutility updates the HP IO Accelerator firmware. This utility scans the PCI-Express bus for all HP IO Accelerators and updates them all sequentially.
