devices. After an hour, the LEDs stop flashing. You can also stop LED flashing by entering the off command.
Syntax:
<target> modify led=on|off
Example commands:
=> ctrl slot=0 modify led=on
=> ctrl slot=0 array A modify led=off
Deleting target devices
Syntax:
<target> delete [forced]
where <target> can be a controller, array, or logical drive. Except in the case of controllers, you can delete
several devices simultaneously if they are of similar type by using the all keyword.
Because deleting a target device can result in data loss, the screen displays a warning prompt unless you
include the forced parameter.
Example commands:
=> ctrl slot=0 delete forced
=> ctrl slot=3 ld all delete

Generating a diagnostic report

SSA provides several ways for administrators to generate diagnostic information, including all three SSA
formats.
In SSA CLI, the diag command outputs diagnostic information about a specified controller or all controllers on
the system. The ssdrpt option generates the SmartSSD Wear Gauge report.
Syntax:
<target> diag <file=filename> [ris=on|off] [ssdrpt=on|off] [xml=on|off] [zip=on|off]
where the following is designated:
<target> is a controller or all controllers.
<file=filename> designates the target file in which the diagnostic information is saved.
[ris=on|off] determines whether RIS information is or is not included. The off value is provided for
backward compatibility and is ignored.
[ssdrpt=on|off] specifies to generate or not generate the Smart SSD Wear Gauge report. The default is
off.
[xml=on|off] outputs diagnostic information in formatted XML. The off value is provided for backward
compatibility and is ignored.
[zip=on|off] compresses the output to a zipped file. Default behavior is uncompressed. The off value is
provided for backward compatibility and is ignored.
Example commands:
ctrl all diag file=c:\allcontrollers.zip
ctrl slot=4 diag file=c:\ctrl_slot4.zip
ctrl ch="mybox" diag file=mybox.zip ssdrpt=on
Erasing a physical drive
This command is not supported.
