aruadmin.nlm
The Administrator utility, which allows central control of all array
tasks, including the following:
■
Setting up nonbootable arrays
■
Displaying the status and configuration of arrays
■
Verifying mirrored and RAID 5 arrays
■
Testing spare drives
■
Reactivating an off-line array or spare
■
Reconstructing data on replacement drives
■
Converting a RAID 5 array to RAID 0, or vice versa
■
Adding, redefining, or deleting an array
■
Scheduling Verify, Reconstruct, and Spare Test operations
The Administrator utility gives the operator a tool for creating
arrays. It also inserts the
arumon.nlm
load line in the
autoexec.ncf
file, ensuring the Array Monitor utility loads whenever the server
starts.
The Administrator utility loads other utilities, such as
arucvt
(the
Convert utility), as needed.
arucvt.nlm
The Convert utility, which runs the RAID conversion function for
aruadmin
. Depending on the operator’s selection,
arucvt
converts
RAID 0 CVT arrays to RAID 5 CVT arrays or vice versa.
arufmt.nlm
The Format utility, used to format the arrays for the RAID level spec-
ified by the operator. This utility is used for the formatting function
in
aruadmin
.
arulib.nlm
The library of routines used by all array NLMs. This file loads auto-
matically when the first array file (usually
arumon.nlm
) loads.
