Show Storage Array Auto Configure
Description
This command shows the default autoconfiguration that the storage array creates if you issue the
autoConfigure storageArray command. To determine whether the storage array can support
specific properties, enter the parameter for the properties when you issue this command. You do not,
however, need to enter any parameters for this command to return configuration information. If you do
not specify any properties, this command returns the RAID 5 candidates for each physical disk type. If
RAID 5 candidates are not available, this command returns candidates for RAID 1 or RAID 0. In order to
view the RAID 6 autoConfiguration options, you must specify the raidLevel option. When you specify
auto-configuration properties, the RAID controller modules validate that the firmware can support the
properties.
