A RAID Manager command reference
This topic describes RAID Manager commands corresponding to actions in the RWC GUI.
Statuses required for RAID Manager tasks
You can use RAID Manager to perform pair tasks. You can also use RWC. To perform tasks using
RAID Manager, you run existing commands for pair tasks or the raidcom commands. Use raidcom
commands to store 65 or more snapshot data or use 64 or more MU numbers. You can use the
existing commands for pair tasks only for the pairs which have 0 to 63 MU numbers.
The following table shows the RAID Manager existing commands and raidcom commands you
can use to perform pair tasks, as well as the RWC tasks.
