Commonly used command line options are listed below. Executing a command without any parameters lists the full usage of for the command.
Storage pool configuration
Listing configured pools
/quadstor/bin/spconfig -l
Adding a Pool
/quadstor/bin/spconfig -a -g <pool name> -d (enable deduplication) -u (enable dedupe metadata)
For example
/quadstor/bin/spconfig -a -g FOO -d will create a pool named FOO with deduplication enabled for data in the pool. The deduplication tables for this pool are maintained in the Default pool
Deleting a Pool
/quadstor/bin/spconfig -x -g <pool name>
Disk Configuration
Listing all disks
/quadstor/bin/bdconfig -l
Listing all configured disks
/quadstor/bin/bdconfig -l -c
Listing all disks excluding configured disks
/quadstor/bin/bdconfig -l -e
Adding a disk
/quadstor/bin/bdconfig -a -d <devicepath> -g <pool name>
Where <devicepath> is the value listed under the "Name" column in the output of a bdconfig -l
For example
/quadstor/bin/bdconfig -a -d /dev/sda adds /dev/sda to the Default pool
Deleting a disk
/quadstor/bin/bdconfig -x -d <devicepath>
VTL Configuration
Display VTL emulation type codes
Every medium changer device and tape drive emulated has a type code assigned by the system. /quadstorvtl/bin/vtconfig –h displays the type code assigned and is as shown belowLibrary Types Type Description 01 ADIC Scalar 24 02 ADIC Scalar 100 03 ADIC Scalar i2000 04 HP StorageWorks ESL9000 05 HP StorageWorks ESL E-Series 06 HP StorageWorks EML E-Series 07 IBM 3583 Ultrium Scalable Library 08 IBM 3584 Ultra Scalable Library 09 IBM System Storage TS3100 10 HP StorageWorks MSL 2024/4048/8096 11 HP StorageWorks MSL 6000 12 Overland NEO 2000/4000/8000 Series 13 StorageTek L20 Library 14 StorageTek L40 Library 15 StorageTek L80 Library 16 StorageTek L120 Library 17 StorageTek L180 Library 18 StorageTek L700 Library 19 StorageTek L1400/700e Library 20 StorageTek SL150 Modular Library 21 StorageTek SL500 Modular Library 22 StorageTek SL3000 Modular Library 23 StorageTek SL8500 Modular Library 24 SpectraLogic 2K/TreeFrog Library 25 SpectraLogic 12/20/64K Library 26 SpectraLogic T24 Library 27 SpectraLogic T-Series Library 28 Quantum/ADIC Scalar 50 29 Quantum/ADIC Scalar i40/80 Series 30 Quantum/ADIC Scalar i500 31 Quantum/ADIC Scalar i6000 32 ATL M1500 33 ATL M2500 34 ATL P1000 35 ATL P2000 36 ATL P3000 37 ATL P4000 38 ATL P7000 39 Quantum PX500 Series 40 Quantum PX720 Drive Types Type Description 01 HP StorageWorks DLT VS80 02 HP StorageWorks DLT VS160 03 HP StorageWorks SDLT 220 04 HP StorageWorks SDLT 320 05 HP StorageWorks SDLT 600 06 Quantum SDLT 220 07 Quantum SDLT 320 08 Quantum SDLT 600 09 HP StorageWorks Ultrium 232 10 HP StorageWorks Ultrium 448 11 HP StorageWorks Ultrium 460 12 HP StorageWorks Ultrium 960 13 HP StorageWorks Ultrium 1840 14 HP StoreEver Ultrium 3280 15 HP StoreEver Ultrium 6250 16 IBM 3580 Ultrium1 17 IBM 3580 Ultrium2 18 IBM 3580 Ultrium3 19 IBM 3580 Ultrium4 20 IBM 3580 Ultrium5 21 IBM 3580 Ultrium6 22 StorageTek T9840A 23 StorageTek T9840B 24 StorageTek T9840C 25 StorageTek T9840D 26 StorageTek T9940A 27 StorageTek T9940B 28 StorageTek T10000A 29 StorageTek T10000B 30 StorageTek T10000C 31 Quantum DLT VS80 32 Quantum DLT VS160
Adding a VTL
/quadstorvtl/bin/vtconfig -a -v <vtl name> -t <type> -s <number of slots> -i <number of ie ports> -d <drive type> -c <drive count> -d <drive type> -e <drive start address> -f <slot start address>In the above command type and drive type will be the library and drive type codes. Slot count is optional and if slot count is zero or not specified, the system will calculate the number of slots based on the drive type and the available space in the storage pool. The default drive start address of 1 and slot start address of 2 will be used if these values are not specified.
Deleting a VTL
/quadstorvtl/bin/vtconfig –x –v <vtl name>
