ACU can use default values in some instances, while in other instances, a listed option might not be relevant for a particular configuration or scripting mode. The options for each category are listed in the following table and described in more detail in the remainder of this section.

Control options can occur only once in a script file and must be listed first. Options in this category specify the controller that is to be configured (or the controller that had its configuration captured). Although the Controller option must begin this section of the script, you can script other options in this category in any order. You can use one script file to configure all controllers in a system, and you can configure the controllers identically or individually. If you define each controller configuration individually, enter the option values for one controller and its arrays and logical drives before specifying the option values for another controller. These options describe an array that is to be configured on the controller that was previously specified in the script. (If no controller was previously specified, ACU stops processing the script and creates an error file.) Although the Array option must begin this section of the script, you can script the other options in this category in any order. HP Array Configuration Utility 77

Each category has several scripting options, but you do not always need to assign values to every option.
ACU can use default values in some instances, while in other instances, a listed option might not be
relevant for a particular configuration or scripting mode.
The options for each category are listed in the following table and described in more detail in the
remainder of this section.

Options in this category specify the controller that is to
be configured (or the controller that had its
configuration captured). Although the Controller option
must begin this section of the script, you can script
other options in this category in any order.
You can use one script file to configure all controllers
in a system, and you can configure the controllers
identically or individually. If you define each controller
configuration individually, enter the option values for
one controller and its arrays and logical drives before
specifying the option values for another controller.

These options describe an array that is to be
configured on the controller that was previously
specified in the script. (If no controller was previously
specified, ACU stops processing the script and creates
an error file.) Although the Array option must begin
this section of the script, you can script the other
options in this category in any order.
