●
internal# is the maximum number of internal drives that the controller may spin up at one
time, from 0-20.
external# is the maximum number of external drives (such as the drives in a JBOD) that the
controller may spin up at one time, from 0-20.
LogicalDrive# is the logical drive number.
Slowdown st# sets the disk drive slow-down timer, in minutes. Valid values are 0 (never), 3, 5,
10, 20, 30, 60, 120, 180.
Poweroff pt# sets the disk drive power-off timer, in minutes. Valid values are 0 (never), 3, 5, 10,
20, 30, 60, 120, 180.
Verify vt# sets the period of inactivity, in hours, after which an inactive drive (a drive that's
already powered down) is restarted to verify its operating condition. Once the check is
completed, the drive is powered down and returns to its inactive state. Valid values are 0
(never), 1, 2, 3, 8, 12, 24.
Note:
For the Slowdown, Poweroff, and Verify timers, st# must be less than pt#, and pt# must
be less than vt#. You can set one or more timers, in any order, in a single command. Keep in
mind that the Verify timer, vt#, is specified in hours; the other two timers are specified in
minutes.

arcconf setpriority

Changes a task's execution priority or a controller's global background task priority.
Syntax
ARCCONF SETPRIORITY <Controller#> [TASK ID] <New Priority> [current]
Parameters
Controller# is the controller number.
Task ID is the number of the task to be changed. Use arcconf getstatus to obtain the task ID.
Omit this parameter to set the controller's global background task priority; that is, the
execution priority for all tasks on the controller.
New Priority is: LOW, MEDIUM, or HIGH.
Current (keyword) applies a global task priority change to running tasks. By default, a global
priority change does not apply to running tasks.
Example
ARCCONF SETPRIORITY 1 <task_id> HIGH
ARCCONF SETPRIORITY 1 LOW CURRENT
