HP 3PAR OS 3.1.3 Command Line Interface Reference

–p <pattern>
Specifies a pattern for candidate disks. Patterns are used to select disks that are used for creating
logical disks. If no pattern is specified, the option defaults to all Fibre Channel (FC) disks. If specified
multiple times, each instance of the specified pattern adds additional candidate disks that match
the pattern. The -devtype pattern cannot be used to mix Near Line (NL), FC, and Solid State
Drive (SSD) drives.
NOTE: An item is specified as an integer, a comma-separated list of integers, or a range of
integers specified from low to high.
–nd <item>
Specifies one or more nodes. Nodes are identified by one or more integers (item). Multiple nodes
are separated with a single comma (1,2,3). A range of nodes is separated with a hyphen (0–7).
The primary path of the disks must be on the specified node number(s).
–st <item>
Specifies one or more PCI slots. Slots are identified by one or more integers (item). Multiple slots
are separated with a single comma (1,2,3). A range of slots is separated with a hyphen (0–7).
The primary path of the disks must be on the specified PCI slot number(s).
–pt <item>
Specifies one or more ports. Ports are identified by one or more integers (item). Multiple ports
are separated with a single comma (1,2,3). A range of ports is separated with a hyphen (0–4).
The primary path of the disks must be on the specified port number(s).
–cg <item>
Specifies one or more drive cages. Drive cages are identified by one or more integers (item).
Multiple drive cages are separated with a single comma (1,2,3). A range of drive cages is
separated with a hyphen (0–3). The specified drive cage(s) must contain disks.
–mg <item>
Specifies one or more drive magazines. The 1. or 0. displayed in the CagePos column of
showpd output indicating the side of the cage is omitted when using -mg option. Drive magazines
are identified by one or more integers (item). Multiple drive magazines are separated with a
single comma (1,2,3). A range of drive magazines is separated with a hyphen (0–7). The specified
magazine(s) must contain disks.
–pn <item>
Specifies one or more disk positions within a drive magazine. Disk positions are identified by one
or more integers (item). Multiple disk positions are separated with a single comma (1,2,3). A
range of disk positions is separated with a hyphen (0–3). The specified portion(s) must contain
disks.
–dk <item>
Specifies one or more physical disks. Disks are identified by one or more integers (item). Multiple
disks are separated with a single comma (1,2,3). A range of disks is separated with a hyphen
(0–3). Disks must match the specified ID(s).
NOTE: The following arguments, –tc_gt , –tc_lt , –fc_gt , –fc_lt , –devid and –devtype are used
to select the disks that are used to create common provisioning groups based on the characteristics
of the disk.
–tc_gt <number>
Specifies that physical disks with total chunklets greater than the number specified be selected.
–tc_lt <number>
Specifies that physical disks with total chunklets less than the number specified be selected.
