Flashing The Firmware Using Afu - Adaptec RAID 21610SA Installation And User Manual

The AFU switches are as follows
/C <Controller ID> is one or more controller IDs representing
I
the set of controllers on which to perform the specified
command. You can specify a single controller ID, for example:
/C 0
multiple IDs separated by commas, for example:
/C 0,2
or ALL to indicate all controllers.
This switch is required. If no /C switch is specified, the system
returns a fatal error message. See each individual command for
the default switch values.
<UFI File Path> specifies the path (drive and directory)
I
/D
where the UFI files are located. If you do not specify the
switch, the AFU looks for, or creates, its UFI files in the default
location.
Note: You cannot specify the name of a UFI file, only its path.
UFI filenames are predefined, based on the controller type.
