6-2 Commands and Interface Description
Format commands as follows for the SAS2IRCU command-line interface:
sas2ircu <controller #> <command> <parameters>
Use a space to separate the program name, controller number, command, and
parameters fields. The format of <parameters> is command specific.
Information passes between the user environment and the SAS2IRCU through the
command line, the standard output and standard error interfaces, and the program
return value. You can redirect the output streams as permitted by the operating system.
When the program exits, it returns a value of 0 if the command is successful. Otherwise,
it returns a value of 1.
If a RAID command fails, the SAS2IRCU prints the IOCStatus and IOCLogInfo on the
console. You can use this information to analyze the cause of the failure.
The following table shows which commands the SAS2IRCU supports on each operating
system.
The commands are not case sensitive. The command descriptions use the following
conventions:
• Enter the text in italics exactly as shown on the command line.
• Replace text enclosed in < > with a required parameter.
• Replace text enclosed in [ ] with an optional parameter.
• Enter parameters enclosed in { } one or more times, as required for the command
being executed.
• Do not enter the command-line definition characters < >, [ ], and { } on the command
line.
