Page 12: Using The Cli
Using the CLI This chapter introduces the AssuredSAN 6004 command-line interface (CLI). In this guide: • The term disk group refers to a vdisk for linear storage. • The term pool refers to a single vdisk for linear storage. Accessing the CLI The CLI software embedded in the controller modules enables you to manage and monitor storage-system operation.
Page 13: Using Cli Interactively
Using CLI interactively By default the CLI is an interactive application. When you are logged into the CLI, the CLI waits for a command to be entered and then responds to it. The following example shows interactively starting a Telnet session, logging into the CLI, executing a command to show volumes, and exiting the CLI: $: telnet IP-address IP-address...
Page 14 $telnet = new Net::Telnet ( Timeout=>10, Errmode=>'die', Prompt => '/\# $/i'); if ( !cLogin($ipAddr, $username, $password) == 1 ) print("Error: $username user failed to log in. Exiting.\n"); $telnet->close; exit(0); For scripting support, the following command can be used to access the XML API and to disable the paging mode that pauses for each full screen of command output.
Page 15 print "Property = " . $name . "\n"; if( $name eq 'response' ) { $sessionKey = $prop->textContent; print "Session Key = $sessionKey\n"; # Run a sample command to obtain the disks in the system. $url = 'http://10.0.0.2/api/show/disks'; $req = HTTP::Request->new(GET => $url); $req->header('sessionKey' =>...
Page 16: Using The Xml Api
Using the XML API The Management Controller provides access for monitoring and management via the Telnet and SSH protocols for command-line interface semantics, or via the HTTP and HTTPS protocols for XML API request/response semantics. You can use an XML parser, such as XML::Parser in Perl, to process the XML output and store this information as objects.
Page 17: Scripting Guidelines
Scripting guidelines When scripting command input, use CLI syntax as defined in this guide. For use with Telnet or SSH, use a space character between command names, parameters, and their values (as shown throughout this guide). For use with the HTTP interface, use a ’/’ character instead of a space character between command names, parameters, and their values.
Page 18: Xml Api Optimization
<PROPERTY name="time-stamp-numeric" type="uint32" size="25" draw="false" sort="datetime" display-name="Time">1405001789</PROPERTY> </OBJECT> </RESPONSE> XML API optimization The following are two ways to optimize XML API performance: • Use embedded objects. This allows one object to contain not only properties but also other objects. In general, parsing a structure such as this is easier as the association between objects is simpler.
Page 19: Specifying Drawers
Unless otherwise specified, a parameter value can include spaces and printable UTF-8 characters except: " , < \ A parameter value that includes a space must be enclosed in double quotes. Parameters can be entered in any order. However, for a parameter with no keyword, if you want to specify a value that is partially or entirely the same as the keyword of an optional parameter, you must specify the optional parameter before the value.
Page 20: Specifying Ports
Specifying ports Controller module host ports are specified by port number only (to use the same port in both controllers) or by controller ID and port number (to specify a port in one controller). Controller IDs are A for the upper controller and B for the lower controller, and are not case sensitive.
Page 21: Command Completion, Editing, And History
Command completion, editing, and history The CLI supports command completion, command editing, and command history. When entering commands interactively you can abbreviate their names and keywords. For example, you can enter sho cl to run the show cli-parameters command. If you press Tab or Ctrl+i after typing sufficient characters to uniquely identify the command or keyword, the remainder of the command or keyword is displayed so you can confirm your intent.

For linear storage, you can add global spares or dedicated spares: •...
Page 28: Check Firmware-Upgrade-Health
check firmware-upgrade-health Description Checks that the system is ready for a firmware upgrade. Under normal conditions, firmware upgrade can be performed safely without risk to data availability or integrity. However, when the system is degraded—for example, because of failed or missing components or lack of multi-pathing to disks—upgrade failure or loss of availability can occur.
Page 29 Check firmware upgrade health for a system that has problems to be resolved before upgrade. # check firmware-upgrade-health Upgrade Health --------------------------------- Fail Condition Detected Risks ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- One or more disks are currently single ported. Data unavailability At least one controller is not up. Data unavailability One or more temperature sensors indicate a critical temperature.
Page 30: Clear Cache
clear cache Description Clears unwritable cache data from both controllers. This data cannot be written to disk because it is associated with a volume that no longer exists or whose disks are not online. If the data is needed, the volume's disks must be brought online. If the data is not needed it can be cleared, in which case it will be lost and data will differ between the host and disk.
Page 31: Clear Degraded-Disk
clear degraded-disk Description Sets a degraded disk’s health to OK and clears the disk’s error count. For a disk that has been failed by the degraded-disk policy, this command also clears the disk’s metadata. After this command is run, error counts used to measure disk medium errors are restarted. Min.
Page 32: Clear Disk-Metadata
clear disk-metadata Description Clears metadata from leftover disks. For a leftover disk, the show disks command shows the Usage value LEFTOVR. CAUTION: • Only use this command when all vdisks are online and leftover disks exist. Improper use of this command may result in data loss.

Example Clear the event log for controller A.
Page 34: Clear Expander-Status
clear expander-status Description Clears the counters and status for SAS expander lanes. For use by or with direction from technical support. Counters and status can be reset to a good state for all enclosures, or for a specific enclosure whose status is Error as shown by the show expander-status command.
Page 35: Create Certificate
create certificate Description Creates or removes a custom security certificate. The storage system supports use of unique certificates for secure data communications, to authenticate that the expected storage systems are being managed. Use of authentication certificates applies to the HTTPS protocol, which is used by the web server in each controller module. After using this command you must restart the system's Management Controllers to have the change take effect.
Page 36: Create Host (Deprecated)

Page 48: Delete Global-Spare (Deprecated)
size size[B|KB|MB|GB|TB|KiB|MiB|GiB|TiB] Sets the volume size. The unit is optional (B represents bytes). If base 2 is in use, whether you specify a base-2 or base- 1 0 unit, the resulting size will be in base 2. If no unit is specified, the default is 512-byte blocks.
Page 49: Delete Initiator-Nickname
delete initiator-nickname Description Deletes manually created initiators or the nickname of discovered initiators. Volume maps continue to apply to the initiators in the host that is deleted. If you delete the nickname of a discovered initiator, commands will show the initiator by its ID. Min.
Page 50: Delete Schedule
delete schedule Description Deletes a task schedule. If you no longer want a scheduled task to occur, you can delete the schedule. When a volume is deleted, its schedules and tasks are also deleted. If the schedule uses a task that is not used by any other schedule, a confirmation prompt will ask whether you want to delete the schedule and the task.
Page 51: Delete Task
delete task Description Deletes a task. If the task is scheduled, a confirmation prompt will ask whether you want to delete the task and its schedules. Reply yes to delete both, or no to cancel the command. Min. role manage Syntax delete task [prompt yes|no]...
Page 52: Delete User
delete user Description Deletes a user account. Except for the user you are logged in as, you can delete any user, including the default users. However, the system requires at least one CLI user with the manage role to exist. When a user is deleted, any sessions associated with that user name are terminated.
Page 53: Delete Vdisks
delete vdisks Description Deletes specified vdisks. This command applies to linear storage only. This unmaps and deletes all volume in the vdisks and makes all the disks available. CAUTION: Deleting a vdisk will delete all data it contains. NOTE: If you delete a quarantined vdisk and its missing disks are later found, the vdisk will reappear as quarantined or offline and you must delete it again (to clear those disks).
Page 54: Delete Volumes
delete volumes Description Deletes specified volumes. CAUTION: Deleting a volume will delete all data it contains and its schedules. Min. role manage Syntax delete volumes volumes Parameters volumes A comma-separated list of the names or serial numbers of the volumes to delete. A name that includes a space must be enclosed in double quotes.
Page 55: Dequarantine
dequarantine Description Removes a disk group from quarantine. CAUTION: Carefully read this topic to determine whether to use the dequarantine command to manually remove a disk group from quarantine. The dequarantine command should only be used as part of the emergency procedure to attempt to recover data and is normally followed by use of the trust command.
Page 56 When a disk group is quarantined, its disks become write-locked, its volumes become inaccessible, and it is not available to hosts until it is dequarantined. If there are interdependencies between the quarantined disk group’s volumes and volumes in other disk groups, quarantine may temporarily impact operation of those other volumes.
Page 57: Down Disk
Example After determining that vdisk VD1 is quarantined, remove it from quarantine and re-check its status. # show vdisks Name ... Status ... ------------------- ... QTDN ... (RAID 6 quarantined with a down disk) ------------------- # dequarantine vdisk VD1 Info: Vdisk VD1 was dequarantined. (VD1) Success: Command completed successfully.

exit Description Log off and exit the CLI session. Min. role monitor Syntax exit Alphabetical list of commands...
Page 59: Expand Vdisk
expand vdisk Description Adds disks to a vdisk to expand its storage capacity. This command applies to linear storage only. The new disks must be the same type as disks already in the vdisk and should also have the same capacity.
Page 60 Expand RAID- 1 0 vdisk R10 to include an additional mirror pair. # expand vdisk disks 2.9-10 R10 Expand RAID-50 vdisk R50, which has four 3-disk sub-vdisks, to include an additional 3-disk sub-vdisk. # expand vdisk disks 2.1-2,2.5 R50 See also • show disks •...
Page 61: Expand Volume
expand volume Description Expands a standard volume. Volume sizes are aligned to 4-MB boundaries. When a volume is created or expanded, if the resulting size would be less than 4 MB it will be increased to 4 MB; if the resulting size would be greater than 4 MB it will be decreased to the nearest 4-MB boundary.
Page 62: Fail
fail Description Forces the partner controller module to crash for a non-maskable interrupt. The command causes the crash by issuing an internal kill command to the Storage Controller in the partner controller module. This might be helpful to gather debug information that is only available via a crash dump. CAUTION: Do not use this command in a production system.
Page 63: Map Volume
map volume Description Maps specified volumes using settings that override the volumes’ default mapping. When a volume is created, if no mapping settings are specified the volume is not mapped. Otherwise, those settings become its default mapping, which specifies the controller host ports and access level that all connected initiators have to the volume, and the LUN presented to all initiators to identify the volume.
Page 64 volumes A comma-separated list of the names or serial numbers of the volumes to map. For volume syntax, "Command syntax" (page 18). Example Map volume v2 with read-only access to initiator Init1, using port A1 and LUN 100. # map volume access ro ports a1 lun 100 initiator Init1 v2 Map volumes v2 and v3 with read-write access for Init2, using ports A1 and B1 and LUN 101.
Page 65: Meta

ping Description Tests communication with a remote host. The remote host is specified by IP address. Ping sends ICMP echo response packets and waits for replies. Min. role monitor Syntax ping host-address [count] Parameters host-address The remote host’s IP address in dotted decimal form. count Optional.
Page 67: Release Volume
release volume Description Clears initiator registrations and releases persistent reservations for all or specified volumes. Normally, reservations placed on volumes by initiators accessing those volumes can be released by host software. This command should be used only when the system is in an abnormal state, perhaps due to a configuration problem, and you need to remove all reservations for specified volumes and return them to a “clean”...
Page 68: Remove Spares
remove spares Description Removes specified spares. You can remove global spares and dedicated spares (linear storage only) in the same command. Min. role manage Syntax remove spares disks Parameters disks The IDs of the spares to remove. For disk syntax, see "Command syntax"...
Page 69: Rescan
rescan Description This command forces rediscovery of disks and enclosures in the storage system. If both Storage Controllers are online and able to communicate with both expansion modules in each connected enclosure, this command rebuilds the internal SAS layout information, reassigns enclosure IDs based on controller A’s enclosure cabling order, and ensures that the enclosures are displayed in the proper order.
Page 70: Reset All-Statistics
reset all-statistics Description Resets performance statistics for both controllers. You can specify either to reset all live statistics to zero, or to reset (clear) all historical performance statistics for all disks.

Page 78: Restart Mc
restart mc Description Restarts the Management Controller in a controller module. When you restart a Management Controller, communication with it is lost until it successfully restarts. If the restart fails, the partner Management Controller remains active with full ownership of operations and configuration information.
Page 79: Restart Sc
restart sc Description Restarts the Storage Controller in a controller module. When you restart a Storage Controller, it attempts to shut down with a proper failover sequence, which includes stopping all I/O operations and flushing the write cache to disk, and then the Storage Controller restarts.
Page 80: Restore Defaults
restore defaults Description Restores the default configuration to the controllers. For use by or with direction from a service technician. For details about which settings are restored see "Settings changed by restore defaults" (page 350). If the system contains only one controller module when the command is issued, the system’s redundancy mode will be set to Single Controller mode.
Page 81: Scrub Vdisk
