Example for SCSI, SATA, and ATA Controllers:
To assign the physical disk described in this example as a global hot spare, you would enter:
omconfig storage pdisk action=assignglobalhotspare controller=1 pdisk=0:3 assign=yes
See "pdisk=<PDISKID> Parameter on SCSI, SATA, and ATA Controllers" and "Multiple Targets" for more information on physical disk specification. See "RAID
Controller Technology: SCSI, SATA, ATA, and SAS" to identify which technology a controller uses.
Example for SAS Controllers:
To assign the physical disk described in this example as a global hot spare, you would enter:
omconfig storage pdisk action=assignglobalhotspare controller=1 pdisk=0:2:3 assign=yes
See "pdisk=<PDISKID> Parameter on SAS Controllers" and "Multiple Targets" for more information on physical disk specification. See "SAS RAID Controllers" to
identify which controllers use SAS technology.
omconfig Unassign Global Hot Spare
Does my controller support this feature? See "Supported Features."
Use the following omconfig command syntax to unassign a physical disk as a global hot spare.
Complete Syntax
omconfig storage pdisk action=assignglobalhotspare controller=id pdisk=<PDISKID> assign=no
where id is the controller ID. The <PDISK> variable specifies the physical disk. See "pdisk=<PDISKID> Parameter" for more information.
To obtain these values, you would enter omreport storage controller to display the controller IDs and then enter omreport storage pdisk controller=ID to
display the IDs for the physical disks attached to the controller.
Example Syntax
In this example, you want to unassign physical disk 3 on connector 0 of controller 1 as a global hot spare. On a SAS controller, the physical disk resides in
enclosure 2.
