LSI MegaRAID

StoreCLI


All examples below are based on the stand alone StorCLI. If the VIB installed version of StorCLI is used the path to “storcli” will be different and may be in /opt.


Show details, including model and serial number, for disk in slot 1 in default enclosure 252 on controller 0;

/vmfs/volumes/ISOs # ./storcli /c0 /e252 /s1 show all

Show details for all disks in all enclosures on all controllers;

/vmfs/volumes/ISOs # ./storcli /call /eall /sall show all


Set disk in slot 1 in default enclosure 252 on controller 0 as good;

/vmfs/volumes/ISOs # ./storcli /c0 /e252 /s1 set good force


Create RAID-0 on disk in slot 1 in default enclosure 252 on controller 0;

/vmfs/volumes/ISOs # ./storcli /c0 add vd r0 size=all drives=252:1 WT nora direct


Start LED flashing to locate disk in slot 2 in default enclosure 252 on controller 0;

/vmfs/volumes/ISOs # ./storcli /c0 /e252 /s2 start locate


Enclosure 252 is the default enclosure that exists on all controllers. This is based on my experience with MegaRAID controllers that have only internal ports in use.


Drive replacement

Replace a failed drive

/opt/lsi/storcli/storcli /c0 show
/opt/lsi/storcli/storcli /c0 /e252 /s0 start locate
/opt/lsi/storcli/storcli /c0 /e252 /s0 stop locate
/opt/lsi/storcli/storcli /c0 /e252 /s0 set offline
/opt/lsi/storcli/storcli /c0 /e252 /s0 set missing
##
## Physically replace drive
## Auto-rebuild may start
##
/opt/lsi/storcli/storcli /c0 /e252 /sall show rebuild

If manual rebuild some of the following commands may be needed

/opt/lsi/storcli/storcli /c0 /e252 /s0 set good
/opt/lsi/storcli/storcli /c0 /e252 /s0 add hotsparedrive
/opt/lsi/storcli/storcli /c0 /e252 /s0 inset dg=0 array=0 row=0
/opt/lsi/storcli/storcli /c0 /e252 /s0 start rebuild
/opt/lsi/storcli/storcli /c0 /e252 /sall show rebuild

The dg, array, and row values come from the following;
