Chapter 2. CLI Syntax Reference

For operating systems that support units larger than 2TB, there is no need to set the policy to on unless you want the operating system to have multiple smaller volumes.

If you use a 32-bit operating system, it is recommended that you keep the policy on unless you know that your operating system supports disks that are larger than 2 TB.

When the autocarve policy is off, all newly created units will consist of one single volume.

Example:

//localhost> /c0 show autocarve /c0 Auto-Carving Policy = on

/cx show carvesize

This feature only applies to 9000 series controllers.

This command shows the maximum size of the volumes that will be created if the autocarve policy is set to on. The carvesize can be set between 1024 GB and 2048 GB. Default carvesize is 2048 GB (2 TB). For more information see, “/cx show autocarve” above.

Example:

//localhost> /c0 show carvesize /c0 Auto-Carving Size = 2000 GB

/cx show memory

This command reports the size of the memory installed on the controller.

Note: The 9500S controllers ship with 128 MBytes of cache, yet only 112MB shows as memory installed. The other 16 MB is reserved for use by the controller.

Example:

//localhost> /c0 show memory /c0 Memory Installed = 112MB
