ACU for DOS Notes: ■ Record Mode can be used to record only one controller at a time. Therefore, if you want to record multiple controllers, record them separately using separate script files. ■ Because the ACU supports only a subset of array types available, it cannot record all the possible array configurations. If the ACU encounters an array that it cannot create, it displays a warning (or records the warning in the log file, if the /L switch is used) and does not record any keywords for that array in its script file. ■ When recording an array, the ACU always uses the default Wait setting (equivalent to Wait=Yes) unless you edit the script file and include Wait=No in the array's definition block. For details, see the Wait Keyword on page B-11 Creating the Script File Manually Script files contain the following structures, or blocks: ■ Array Definition Block Keywords ■ Channel Definition Block Keywords - SCSI only (optional) The rules for syntax are as follows: ■ Each keyword must start its own line. ■ The syntax is not case sensitive. Comments To enter a comment in the script file, start with a pound character (#). You can start anywhere on a line. For a sample script that includes comments, see Example - Running the ACU with a Script on page B-14. B-5

ACU for DOS
Notes:
Record Mode can be used to record only one controller at a
time. Therefore, if you want to record multiple controllers,
record them separately using separate script files.
Because the ACU supports only a subset of array types
available, it cannot record all the possible array
configurations. If the ACU encounters an array that it
cannot create, it displays a warning (or records the
warning in the log file, if the
/L
switch is used) and does
not record any keywords for that array in its script file.
When recording an array, the ACU always uses the default
Wait
setting (equivalent to
Wait=Yes
) unless you edit the
script file and include
Wait=No
in the array’s definition
block. For details, see the
Wait Keyword
on page B-11
Creating the Script File Manually
Script files contain the following structures, or blocks:
Array Definition Block Keywords
Channel Definition Block Keywords – SCSI only
(optional)
The rules for syntax are as follows:
Each keyword must start its own line.
The syntax is
not
case sensitive.
Comments
To enter a comment in the script file, start with a pound character (
#
).
You can start anywhere on a line. For a sample script that includes
comments, see
Example – Running the ACU with a Script
on page B-14
.
