Sample Scripts
This MS-DOS command invokes the ACU and creates arrays on controller 1 based on the
array keywords defined in the script file A:\RAID.ACU. It also configures Channel 0 and saves
a log of the operation in the log file C:\RAID.LOG:
A:\> ACU /P A:\RAID.ACU /L C:\RAID.LOG /C1
Sample Scripts for SCSI and SAS Controllers
Note:
For a sample script for a SATA controller, see
This sample script file is a sample RAID.ACU script as referred to in the ACU command above.
This script creates these arrays—a 500 MB single-disk volume, and a 2-GB two-disk drive
RAID 1 with a hot spare:
# Script to create volume, mirror, and RAID 5 arrays
# Create a 500MB volume labeled 'MySystem'
Array=MySystem
Type=Volume
Size=500MB
Drives=0:0:0
End
# Create a 2GB mirror labeled 'MyMirror'
Array=MyMirror
Type=RAID1
Size=2GB
# Use drives 1 and 2
Drives=0:1:0,0:2:0
# Disable write cache
WriteCache=No
# Assign 1 spare drive
HotspareDrives=0:3:0
End
This sample script file creates a maximum-size three-disk-drive RAID 5:
# Create a maximum size RAID 5 labeled 'MyData'
Array=MyData
Type=RAID5
Size=Maximum
# Use the maximum stripe size
StripeSize=256
# Clear the array (don't build/verify it)
Method=Clear
# Don't wait for clear to complete
Wait=No
# Use drives 0, 1, 2
Drives=0:0:0, 0:1:0, 0:2:0
End
