- As part of the command syntax - To indicate which parameters are optional The description of each parameter tells you when you must put brackets around a parameter value. • Parentheses shown in the command syntax enclose specific choices for a parameter. That is, if you want to use the parameter, you must use one of the values shown in the parentheses. Generally, you do not include parentheses in a command. In some instances, however, you must put parentheses around a list. For example, you must put parentheses around a list of enclosure ID values and slot ID values. The description of each parameter tells you if you must put parentheses around a parameter value. • Vertical bars in a command indicate or and separate the valid entries for the parameter. For example, the syntax for the raidLevel parameter in the command description appears as follows: raidLevel=(0 | 1 | 5 | 6) To use the raidLevel parameter to set a RAID level of 5, enter: raidLevel=5 • When you specify physical disk locations by using enclosure ID values and slot ID values, separate the ID values with a comma. If you enter more than one set of ID values, separate each set of values by a space. Put parentheses around the set of values. For example: (0,0 0,1 0,2 0,3 1,0 1,1 1,2 1,3) • Italicized terms in the command indicate a value or information that you need to provide. For example, when you encounter the italicized term: numberOfPhysicalDisks Replace the italicized term with a value for the number of physical disks that you want to include with the command. • You can use any combination of alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores for the names of the following components: - Storage arrays - Host groups - Hosts - Disk groups - Virtual disks - Host bus adapter (HBA) host ports Names can have a maximum of 30 characters. If the label contains multiple words, underscores, or hyphens, you must put quotation marks around the name. In some usages you must also put brackets around the name. The description of each parameter tells you if you must put quotation marks or brackets around a parameter value. The character string cannot contain a new line. You must use unique names or the RAID controller module firmware returns an error. NOTE: You can use any combination of alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores for the names. Command names can have a maximum of 30 characters. If you exceed the maximum character limit, replace square brackets ([ ]) with angle brackets (< >) to overcome this limitation. On Microsoft Windows, you must put a backslash (\) before and after the name in addition to other delimiters. For example, the following name is used in a command running under a Windows operating system: [\"Engineering"\] For Linux, and when used in a script file, the name appears as the following: ["Engineering"] 90

Parentheses shown in the command syntax enclose specific choices for a parameter. That is, if you want to use
the parameter, you must use one of the values shown in the parentheses. Generally, you do not include

you must put parentheses around a list of enclosure ID values and slot ID values. The description of each

Vertical bars in a command indicate or and separate the valid entries for the parameter. For example, the syntax
for the
raidLevel
parameter in the command description appears as follows:
raidLevel=(0 | 1 | 5 | 6)
To use the
raidLevel
parameter to set a RAID level of 5, enter:
raidLevel=5
•
When you specify physical disk locations by using enclosure ID values and slot ID values, separate the ID
values with a comma. If you enter more than one set of ID values, separate each set of values by a space. Put
parentheses around the set of values. For example:
(0,0 0,1 0,2 0,3 1,0 1,1 1,2 1,3)
•
Italicized terms in the command indicate a value or information that you need to provide. For example, when you
encounter the italicized term:
numberOfPhysicalDisks
Replace the italicized term with a value for the number of physical disks that you want to include with the
command.
•
You can use any combination of alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores for the names of the
following components:
–
Storage arrays
–
Host groups
–
Hosts
–
Disk groups
–
Virtual disks
–
Host bus adapter (HBA) host ports
Names can have a maximum of 30 characters. If the label contains multiple words, underscores, or hyphens,
you must put quotation marks around the name. In some usages you must also put brackets around the name.
The description of each parameter tells you if you must put quotation marks or brackets around a parameter

For example, the following name is used in a command running under a Windows operating system:
[\"Engineering"\]
For Linux, and when used in a script file, the name appears as the following:
["Engineering"]
