Dell 34XX, 38XX, 32XX, 36XX manual SMcli -n Example -f scriptfile.scr -e, SMcli -d

Windows:

SMcli -n "Payroll_Array" -c "set storageArray userLabel=\"Finance_Array\";"

Linux:

SMcli -n ‘Payroll_Array’ -c ‘set storageArray userLabel="Finance_Array";’

This example shows how to delete an existing virtual disk and create a new virtual disk on a storage array. The existing virtual disk name is Stocks_<_Bonds. The new virtual disk name is Finance. The RAID controller module host names are finance1 and finance2. The storage array is protected and requires the password TestArray.

Windows:

SMcli finance1 finance2 -c "set session password= \"TestArray\"; delete virtualDisk [\"Stocks_<_Bonds\"];create virtualDisk physicalDiskCount[3] raidLevel=5 capacity=10 GB userLabel=\"Finance\"; show storageArray healthStatus;"

Linux:

SMcli finance1 finance2 -c ‘set session password= delete virtualDisk ["Stocks_<_Bonds"]; create virtualDisk physicalDiskCount[3] raidLevel=5 capacity=10 GB userLabel="Finance"; show storageArray healthStatus;’

This example shows how to run commands in a script file named scriptfile.scr on a storage array named Example. The -eparameter runs the file without checking syntax. Executing an SMcli command without checking syntax enables the file to run more quickly; however, the SMcli command may not execute correctly if the syntax is incorrect.

SMcli -n Example -f scriptfile.scr -e

This example shows how to run commands in a script file named scriptfile.scr on a storage array named Example. In this example, the storage array is protected by the password My_Array. Output, as a result of commands in the script file, goes to file output.txt.

Windows:

SMcli -n Example -f scriptfile.scr -p "My_Array" - o output.txt

Linux:

SMcli -n Example -f scriptfile.scr -p ‘My_Array’ - o output.txt

This example shows how to display all storage arrays that are currently discovered in the current configuration. The command in this example returns the host name of each storage array.

SMcli -d

If you want to know the IP address of each storage array in the configuration, add the -iparameter to the command.

SMcli -d -i
