Examples of Command Line Usage
This section shows how various DOS-based CU command line options
are used for striped volumes.
A.5.4.1
Creating a Custom Striped Logical Drive
At least two targets must be listed with the
/t
option. Other options can
be used on the same command line as the create options, to override
the defaults. Here are some examples:
Example 1 –
Configure a striped volume with three disks on adapter 1,
using the disks at SCSI IDs 1, 4, and 5.
mptpsir /rts /c1 /t1 /t4 /t5
Example 2 –
Configure the IS logical drive the same as in Example 1,
but limit the size to 1000 Mbytes and don’t reboot on exit.
mptpsir /rts /c1 /t1 /t4 /t5 /sz1000 /nr
Example 3 –
Configure a striped volume with the characteristics
specified in
inputfile
. (The command line options in
c:\inputfile
must be in a contiguous block of text with no inserted carriage returns.)
