arcconf playconfig

Description
Configures a controller using a XML server template file produced by the SAVECONFIG command (see
arcconf playconfig
on page 28). Use this command to deploy the same controller configuration on
multiple servers in your storage space.
Note:
1. The XML server template file (default, saveconfig.xml) is editable. For example,
you may need to change the disk drive capacity, logical drive size, or RAID level.
2. Drives from the same vendor with slightly different capacities (147GB vs 150GB,
for instance) are considered interchangeable. If the interchange results in a change
in logical drive capacity, the drive is scaled, as needed. For example, if the new
drives have 4% more capacity due to vendor or model changes, then all logical
drives are increased in size by 4%.
3. Be sure to check the log file to verify that the controller was configured successfully.
The exit codes, shown below, indicate the success or failure of the operation and
if the system needs to be rebooted.
