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.
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;
