Use the chenclosureslot command to modify
the properties of an enclosure slot.
Syntax
chenclosureslot { -identify { yes | no } | [ -exclude { yes | no } [ -portport_id ] [ -force ] ] } -slot slot_id enclosure_id
Note: - Optional parameters are mutually exclusive.
- You can only specify -port or -force when
you also specify -exclude.
- Exactly one of the optional parameters must be set.
- Using -force has an effect on the operation
of -exclude yes.
Parameters
- -identify yes | no
- (Optional) Change the state of fault light-emitting
diode (LED) to or from slow_flashing.
- -exclude yes | no
- (Optional) Ensures that an enclosure slot port is excluded. The
following list gives details of the options you can use with this
parameter:
- -exclude yes -port port_id -slot slot_id enclosureid:
The port you specify with port_id is excluded.
If the current state of the port is excluded_by_enclosure, excluded_by_drive,
or excluded_by_cluster, this command will appear
to have no effect. However, if the current state of the port is online,
then that state will change to excluded_by_cluster.
The port will remain excluded until you rerun this command with no selected.
Attention: This command checks for dependent volumes. If issuing
this command would result in losing access to data, then the command
fails and an error message displayd. You can use the -force flag
to ignore these errors, but this could result in loss of access to
data.
- -exclude no -port port_id -slot slot_id enclosureid:
The port is put into online state, provided there
are no other reasons to exclude the port. If you issue this command
when the port is online, then it has no effect. However,
if you issue this command when the port is excluded,
then the port state will do one of the following:
- Change to online status immediately.
- Change to online status after all other reasons
for the port to be excluded have been removed.
- -exclude yes | no -slot slot_id enclosureid:
If you issue this command without defining a port, the command simultaneously
acts on both ports.
- -port 1 | 2
- (Optional) Specifies the port on the canister to be excluded.
If it is not specified, -exclude acts on both
ports.
- -force
- (Optional) Forces the port on the canister to be excluded.
Important: Using the -force parameter
might result in a loss of access. Use it only under the direction
of your product support information.
- -slot slot_id
- (Required) Specifies
the slot ID. The slots are numbered 1 (leftmost) to 24 (rightmost)
when viewed from in front of the enclosure, in 24-slot enclosures.
In 12-slot enclosures, the slots are arranged in numerical order in
three rows with four slots. For example, the:
- First row contains slots 1, 2, 3, and 4 (in that order)
- Second row contains slots 5, 6, 7, and 8 (in that order)
- Third row contains slots 9, 10, 11, and 12 (in that order)
- enclosure_id
- (Required) The enclosure that the slot is a member of.
