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.
