STATUS

The STATUS command displays the status of any volume synchronization operation that is currently in progress on the controller.

Syntax

cfggen <controller #> status

Parameters

<controller #>

A SAS controller number between 0 and 255.

Operation

If no volume synchronization is in progress, CFGIR prints a message so indicating before exiting. The STATUS command adds the Inactive flag to the Volume State field, if the volume is marked as inactive by the controller firmware.

Sample Output

The following is an example of the status information returned when a volume resynchronization is in progress.

Background command progress status for controller 0...

IR Volume 1

 

Current operation

: None

Volume ID

: 2

Volume status

: Enabled

Volume state

: Optimal

Physical disk I/Os

: Not quiesced

The status fields in the data displayed can take on the following values:

Current operation

Synchronize or None

Volume status

Enabled or Disabled

Volume state

Inactive] Optimal, Degraded or Failed

Physical disk I/Os

Quiesced or Not quiesced

ENABLEIR

The ENABLEIR command turns on IR functionality on a SAS controller. To accomplish the enabling, clear the MPI_IOUNITPAGE1_DISABLE_IR bit in the IO Unit 1 MPT Configuration page.

Syntax

cfggen <controller #> enableir

Parameters

<controller #>

A SAS controller number between 0 and 255.

Operation

If there are any existing IR volumes when this command is run you are notified with an output message, no action is taken and CFGGEN returns SUCCESS. If IR is currently enabled when this command is run, CFGGEN returns SUCCESS.

Faulty controller or peripheral hardware (such as., cables, disk drives, and so on.) will not cause this utility to hang. It exits with the appropriate return value. If an operation fails, a reasonable attempt is made to recover the operation. This may include clearing the fault condition by whatever means necessary and retrying the operation.

INTEGRITY RX3600 specifications

The HP Integrity RX3600 is a high-performance server designed to address the demanding needs of enterprises that require robust computing capabilities, reliability, and scalability. Part of the HP Integrity server family, the RX3600 is built on the Itanium architecture, which is known for its exceptional processing power and advanced features that support mission-critical applications.

One of the main features of the RX3600 is its capability to handle multiple workloads with ease. The server supports up to 64 GB of RAM, allowing for efficient multitasking and enhanced performance in data-intensive environments. Its modular design also enables organizations to scale up their systems by adding additional memory or processors as needed, making it a flexible choice for growing businesses.

The RX3600 is equipped with HP's Integrity Virtual Machines (VMs), which provide virtualization capabilities that allow businesses to run multiple operating systems and applications on a single physical server. This not only maximizes resource utilization but also simplifies management by reducing the number of physical servers required in the data center.

Another significant characteristic of the RX3600 is its advanced reliability features. The server is designed with fault-tolerant components, including redundant power supplies and cooling systems. This ensures that the server remains operational even in the event of hardware failures. Additionally, HP's Error Correction Code (ECC) memory helps detect and correct data corruption, further enhancing the system's reliability.

For security, the HP Integrity RX3600 includes built-in features such as Secure Boot, which ensures that the server boots using only trusted firmware and software. This protects against unauthorized changes and vulnerabilities that could compromise data integrity.

In terms of connectivity, the RX3600 offers multiple I/O options, including advanced networking capabilities that support high-speed data transfer and improved bandwidth. This is critical for organizations that rely on data-intensive applications and need to maintain seamless connectivity.

Furthermore, the server supports a range of operating systems, including HP-UX and Linux, making it adaptable to various enterprise environments. Its robust performance, reliability, and scalability make the HP Integrity RX3600 an ideal choice for businesses looking to optimize their IT infrastructure and support their critical workloads with confidence.
