Backing Up Subsystem Configurations
The controller stores information about the subsystem configuration in its
nonvolatile memory. This information could be lost if the controller fails or when
you replace a module in the subsystem.
Use the following command to produce a display that shows if the save
configuration feature is active and which devices are being used to store the
configuration.
SHOW THIS_CONTROLLER FULL
The resulting display includes a line that indicates status and how many devices
have copies of the configuration. The last line shows on how many devices the
configuration is backed up.
Note: DO NOT use SAVE_CONFIGURATION in dual redundant controller installations.
It is not supported and may result in unexpected controller behavior.
The SHOW DEVICES FULL command shows which disk drives are set up to back up
the configuration. The syntax for this command is shown below:
