A.3.1 Common Command-Line
Parameters
This section describes command-line parameters that are common to more than one
command.
<controller_#>
The unique controller number that the program assigns to each PCI function found
on supported controller chips in the system, starting with controller # 0. For
example, in a system containing two LSISAS2008 controllers, controller # 0
references the first controller and control ler # 1 references the other cont roller.
Valid controller number values are 0 to 255 (decimal).
<Enclosure:Bay>
The enclosure and bay/slot of a peripheral device attached to the bus. The
argument must use a colon (:) as a separator and must follow the enclosure:bay
format. Enclosure is a 16-bit EnclosureHandle value set by the I/O controller (IOC). A
value of 0 is invalid. Bay/Slot is a 16-bit slot value set by the IOC. Use the DISPLAY
command to get the enclosure and slot numbers of a drive.
A.3.2 CREATE Command The CREATE command creates Integrated RAID volumes on LSI SAS2 controllers.
When you add a disk to an Integrated RAID volume, the volume might not use all of the
disk’s storage capacity. For example, if you add a 300-GB disk drive to a volume that
only uses 20 0 GB of c apacit y on each disk dri ve, the vo lume doe s not use the rema ining
100GB of capacity on the disk drive.
