Using the ARM Command Line Utilities for Windows NT Command Syntax Conventions Command Syntax Conventions The following symbols are used in the command descriptions and examples: Symbol | [ ] { } Meaning Integer value, whose units are not defined. "Exclusive OR." Exactly one of the parameters displayed will be used. Items enclosed are optional. Items enclosed are required. Selecting a Disk Array to Manage When using the ARM utilities, the field is used to identify the disk array. The field contains the disk array serial number. For example, assume a disk array has a serial number of 00786B5C0000. To check the available unallocated capacity on this particular disk array, you would use the following command: arraydsp -V 00786B5C0000 The serial number of all arrays connected to the host can be obtained using the command: arraydsp -i For more information see "Displaying Disk Array Serial Numbers" in this chapter. Many commands affect the operation of the entire disk array. Commands that involve only a specific logical drive on the array will include an option (-L LUN) for identifying the logical drive involved. For example, to format logical drive 3 on a disk array with serial number 00786B5C0000, use the following command: arrayfmt -L 3 00786B5C0000 Windows NT 242

Command Syntax Conventions
The following symbols are used in the command descriptions and examples:
Symbol
Meaning
<>
Integer value, whose units are not defined.
|
“Exclusive OR.” Exactly one of the
parameters displayed will be used.
[ ]
Items enclosed are optional.
{ }
Items enclosed are required.
Selecting a Disk Array to Manage
When using the ARM utilities, the
<array-id
>
field is used to identify the disk array. The
<array-
id
>
field contains the disk array serial number.
For example, assume a disk array has a serial number of 00786B5C0000. To check the available
unallocated capacity on this particular disk array, you would use the following command:
arraydsp -V 00786B5C0000
The serial number of all arrays connected to the host can be obtained using the command:
arraydsp -i
For more information see "
Displaying Disk Array Serial Numbers
" in this chapter.
Many commands affect the operation of the entire disk array. Commands that involve only a specific logical
drive on the array will include an option (-L LUN) for identifying the logical drive involved. For example,
to format logical drive 3 on a disk array with serial number 00786B5C0000, use the following command:
arrayfmt -L 3 00786B5C0000
