Container Readonly - Adaptec AAR-21610SA Reference Manual

container readonly

To change an array's read-write status to read-only status, use the
container readonly command. Subsequent modifications to
the data on the array are prohibited. To use the container
readonly command, the array cannot be in use by any
application.
Syntax
container readonly {container}
Parameters
{container}
Specifies the ID number (0 to 63) of the array to make read-
only.
Examples
Before making an array read-only, use the container list
command (with the /full switch) to obtain information about
any existing arrays. As the following example shows, there is an
array 0 (a volume set) on this controller. Note that the RO column
is blank:
AAC0>container list /full
Executing: container list /full=TRUE 0

-- ----- ------ ------ --- ------ ------- --------
F: 0 Volume 10.0MB
Note that the example eliminates some items in the container
list display so that you can see an example of the RO column.
The following example changes array 0 from read-write status to
read-only status:
AAC0>container readonly 0
Executing: container readonly 0
