Syntax Of Command Elements

The omreport and omconfig commands have multiple name=value pairs. These name=value pairs may include required, optional, and variable parameters. The following table describes the syntax used to indicate these parameters.

Table 1. Syntax For Name=Value Pairs
Syntax	Description
controller=id	Indicates the controller ID as reported by the omreport storage controller command. To obtain these values, type `omreport storage controller` to display the controller IDs and then type `omreport storage pdisk controller=id` to display the IDs for the physical disks attached to the controller. For example, the controller=id parameter is specified as controller=1.
connector=id	Indicates the connector ID as reported by the omreport command. To obtain this value, type `omreport storage controller` to display the controller IDs and then type `omreport storage connector controller=id` to display the IDs for the connectors attached to the controller. For example, the connector=id parameter is specified as connector=2.
vdisk=id	Indicates the virtual disk ID as reported by the omreport command. To obtain this value, type `omreport storage controller` to display the controller IDs and then type `omreport storage vdisk controller=id` to display the IDs for the virtual disks on the controller. For example, the vdisk=id parameter is specified as vdisk=3.
enclosure=<ENCLOSUREID>	Indicates a particular enclosure by specifying either enclosure=connector or enclosure=connector:enclosureID. To obtain these values, type `omreport storage controller` to display the controller IDs and then type `omreport storage enclosure controller=id` to display the IDs for the enclosures attached to the controller.
pdisk=<PDISKID>	Indicates a particular physical disk by specifying either connector:targetID or connector:enclosureID:targetID. To obtain the values for the connector, enclosure, and physical disk (targetID), type `omreport storage controller` to display the controller IDs and then type `omreport storage pdisk controller=id` to display the IDs for the physical disks attached to the controller.
battery=id	Indicates the battery ID as reported by the omreport command. To obtain this value, type `omreport storage controller` to display the controller IDs and then type `omreport storage battery controller=id` to display the ID for the controller battery.
< >	The caret symbols (< >) enclose variable elements that you must specify. For example, the name=<string>parameter is specified as name=VirtualDisk1.
[ ]	The bracket symbols ([ ]) indicate optional elements that you can choose whether or not to specify. For example, when creating a virtual disk, the [name=<string>] parameter indicates that you have the option of specifying the virtual disk name. If you omit this parameter from the syntax, then a default name for the virtual disk is chosen for you.
\|	The pipe symbol (\|) separates two or more options from which only one is selected. For example, when creating a virtual disk, the cachepolicy=d \| c indicates that the cache policy is specified as either cachepolicy=d or cachepolicy=c.
