Note: Exactly one of the optional parameters must be set.
- The -port and -excludesasport parameters must be
specified together.
- Exactly one of the optional parameters must be set.
Parameters
Note: Optional parameters
are mutually exclusive.
- -excludesasport yes | no
- (Optional) Excludes or includes the specified SAS port. The -port and

access to the data for one or more volumes is dependent on the canister being reset . Using the
-reset parameter might result in a loss of access to your drives (and data).
Use it only under the direction of your product support group or representative.
- -identify yes | no
