Chapter 2. CLI Syntax Reference

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.

/cx set verify=enabledisable1..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.

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=onoff” on page 68.

/cx set selftest=enabledisable [task=UDMASMART]

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.
