A RAID configuration and other utilities
Configuring a Smart Array Controller
Using the saupdate command
The saupdate command is used to query or change the mode of the Smart Array P410i and Smart Array P411 controllers to HBA or RAID. Querying or changing modes is not supported for other controllers.
The following are the newly added commands to saupdate:
•get_mode
•set_mode
