Legacy CLI Syntax
Reference
This chapter provides detailed information about using the legacy syntax for
the 3ware CLI, using the commands Info, Maint, Sched, Alarms, Set, and
Help. Support for the legacy syntax is available only for a limited time.
Information commands provide all information and settings about the
Info.
3ware controllers, including array types, array status, array settings, detail
controller information, and detail drive information. For details, see "Info
Commands" on page 85.
Maint.
drives and arrays connect to the 3ware controller. Typical operations include:
create array, delete array, rebuild array, verify array, and remove array from
the controller. For details, see "Maint Commands" on page 96.
Sched.
commands allow you to schedule different time slots for background tasks
such as rebuild, verify, and selftest. For details, see "Sched Commands" on
page 104.
In order to use CLI scheduling commands with 7000 and 8000 controllers,
you must use them in conjunction with a time-driven scheduling component
under Windows, Linux, or FreeBSD. For example, under Linux, you can use
the cron daemon scheduling utility with the CLI commands for rebuild, verify,
and mediascan. (For more information about the specific CLI commands, see
"Maint Commands" on page 96 and refer to your Linux documentation or
manpages.)
