Syntax Of Command Elements
The omreport and omconfig commands have multiple name=value pairs. These name=value pairs may include required, optional, and 
variable parameters. The following table describes the syntax used to indicate these parameters.
Table 91. Syntax For Name=Value Pairs
Syntax Description
controller=id
Indicates the controller ID as reported by the omreport storage controller 
command. To obtain these values, type omreport storage controller to 
display the controller IDs and then type omreport storage pdisk 
controller=id to display the IDs for the physical disks attached to the 
controller.
For example, the controller=id parameter is specified as controller=1.
connector=id
Indicates the connector ID as reported by the omreport command. To obtain this 
value, type omreport storage controller to display the controller IDs 
and then type omreport storage connector controller=id to display 
the IDs for the connectors attached to the controller.
For example, the connector=id parameter is specified as connector=2.
vdisk=id
Indicates the virtual disk ID as reported by the omreport command. To obtain this 
value, type omreport storage controller to display the controller IDs 
and then type omreport storage vdisk controller=id to display the 
IDs for the virtual disks on the controller.
For example, the vdisk=id parameter is specified as vdisk=3.
enclosure=<ENCLOSUREID>
Indicates a particular enclosure by specifying either enclosure=connector 
or enclosure=connector:enclosureID.
To obtain these values, type omreport storage controller to display the 
controller IDs and then type omreport storage enclosure 
controller=id to display the IDs for the enclosures attached to the controller.
pdisk=<PDISKID>
Indicates a particular physical disk by specifying either connector:targetID 
or connector:enclosureID:targetID.
To obtain the values for the connector, enclosure, and physical disk (targetID), 
type omreport storage controller to display the controller IDs and then 
type omreport storage pdisk controller=id to display the IDs for the 
physical disks attached to the controller.
battery=id
Indicates the battery ID as reported by the omreport command. To obtain this 
value, type omreport storage controller to display the controller IDs 
and then type omreport storage battery controller=id to display 
the ID for the controller battery.
< >
The caret symbols (< >) enclose variable elements that you must specify.
For example, the name=<string>parameter is specified as 
name=VirtualDisk1.
[ ]
The bracket symbols ([ ]) indicate optional elements that you can choose whether 
or not to specify.
For example, when creating a virtual disk, the [name=<string>] parameter 
indicates that you have the option of specifying the virtual disk name. If you omit 
this parameter from the syntax, then a default name for the virtual disk is chosen 
for you.
|
The pipe symbol (|) separates two or more options from which only one is 
selected.
