For descriptions of the show commands, including examples of the
information returned by each command, see "Script Commands" on
page 129. Other commands can help you learn about your storage array. To
see a list of the commands, see "Commands Listed by Function" on page 132.
These commands are organized by the storage array activities that the
commands support. (Examples include virtual disk commands, host
commands, enclosure commands, and others.)

Saving a Configuration to a File

CAUTION:
When you write information to a file, the script engine does not check
to determine if the file name already exists. If you choose the name of a file that
already exists, the script engine writes over the information in the file without
warning.
After you have created a new configuration or if you want to copy an existing
configuration for use on other storage arrays, you can save the configuration
to a file. To save the configuration, use the save storageArray configuration
command. Saving the configuration creates a script file that you can run on
the command line. The following syntax is the general form of the command:
save storageArray configuration file="filename"
[(allconfig | globalSettings=(TRUE | FALSE)) |
virtualDiskConfigAndSettings=(TRUE | FALSE) |
hostTopology=(TRUE | FALSE) | lunMappings=(TRUE |
FALSE)]
You can choose to save the entire configuration or specific configuration
features. The command for setting this parameter value looks like the
following example:
