CLI Guide

Parameter Description
force
Use this parameter to force the immediate deletion
of a virtual disk even if the RAID controller modules
are performing other operations. To immediately
force the deletion of a virtual disk, set this
parameter to TRUE. To wait until the RAID
controller modules have finished performing other
operations, do not use this parameter or set this
parameter to FALSE.
schedule
retainRepositoryMembers
When you delete a thin virtual disk, the associated
repository virtual disk is deleted by default.
However, when the retainRepositoryMembers
is set to TRUE, the repository virtual disk is retained.
For normal virtual disks, this parameter has no
effect.
Notes
When you use the allVirtualDisks parameter, this command deletes virtual disks until all of the
virtual disks are removed or until an error is encountered. If an error is encountered, this command does
not try to delete the remaining virtual disks. Deleting virtual disks from different disk groups is possible. All
of the disk groups that become empty are deleted if you set the removeDiskGroup parameter to TRUE.
Diagnose RAID Controller Module
Description
This command runs diagnostic tests on the RAID controller module.
The testID parameter takes the following options, which you can use to verify that a RAID controller
module is functioning correctly:
• 1 — Reads the test
• 2 — Performs a data loop-back test
• 3 — Writes the test
The diagnostic tests consist of loop-back tests in which data is written to physical disks and read from the
physical disks.
