fccli(1m)                                                            fccli(1m)



NAME
     fccli - FibreVault Status/Configuration Command Line Interface


SYNOPSIS
     The command line syntax of fccli takes multiple flavors depending on the
     use.

     fccli getversion [-h hostname]
     fccli getstatus [-h hostname] [-c channel-ID [-e enclosure-ID]]
     fccli command [-h hostname] -c channel-ID -t tid_1 [tid_2 .. [tid_n]]

     where command is one of the following:
                    insert, remove, ledon, ledoff, flash, bypass, unbypass.


DESCRIPTION
     The fccli command is a user front end to fcagent which collects status of
     all FibreVault enclosures and allows for configuration changes.


COMMANDS
     getversion     this command will report the version level of fcagent.

     getstatus      this command reports status of FibreVault enclosures. The
                    interface is in the form of a hierarchy where the user can
                    get brief summary channel status at one extreme and
                    detailed enclosure status at the other extreme.

     remove         this command will prepare a drive for physical removal,
                    i.e. will spin-down the specified disk drive, and bypass
                    it to logically remove it from the FC loop.

     insert         this command will prepare a drive for operation, after
                    being physically introduced into the enclosure, i.e. will
                    unbypass it to logically introduce it onto the FC loop and
                    spin it up.

     ledon          this command will turn "ON" the amber "LED" associated
                    with the specified disk device.

     ledoff         this command will turn "OFF" the amber "LED" associated
                    with the specified disk device.

     flash          this command will "FLASH" the amber "LED" associated with
                    the specified disk device. This "flashing" mode will
                    persist until either an ledon or ledoff command is issued.

     bypass         this command will logically remove the specified disk
                    device from the FC loop.





                                                                        Page 1





fccli(1m)                                                            fccli(1m)



     unbypass       this command will logical introduce the specified disk
                    device onto the FC loop.


OTHER COMMAND LINE OPTIONS
     -h hostname    use this option to communicate with an instance of fcagent
                    running on a remote machine.

     -c channel-ID  use this option to direct a command at a particular FC
                    channel.

     -e enclosure-ID
                    use this option (getstatus command only) in conjunction
                    with the -c option to obtain more detailed status about a
                    particular enclosure.

     -t tid_1 [tid_2 .. [tid_n]]
                    use this option(s) (insert, remove, ledon, ledoff, flash,
                    bypass, unbypass commands only) in conjunction with the -c
                    option to direct an action at a particular drive or set of
                    drives.


EXAMPLES
     Obtaining the revision level of the instance of fcagent running on remote
     machine betelguese:

          fccli getversion -h betelguese

          sample output:

          FC JBOD Agent version 1.0, Mon May 19 17:16:48 PDT 1997



     Obtaining a brief channel status summary:

          fccli getstatus

          sample output:

          CHANNEL | DRIVES    POWER     FANS      PEER LCC
          --------+-----------------------------------------
             24   |   OK       FAIL      OK         OK
             25   |

     The example shows that channel 24 has one or more enclosures reporting a
     power supply fault. Channel 25 shows no status which indicates one of
     three possibilities.






                                                                        Page 2





fccli(1m)                                                            fccli(1m)



     o  There are no FC device(s) connect to the channel.
     o  There are no FibreVaults(s) connect to the channel (e.g. fibre RAID
        may be connected).
     o  There is a communication problem with the FibreVault.

     Obtaining a more detailed enclosure summary of channel 24:

          fccli getstatus -c 24

          sample output:

          ENCLOSURE | DRIVES    POWER     FANS      PEER LCC
          ----------+-----------------------------------------
                4   |   OK       FAIL      OK         OK
                5   |   OK       FAIL      OK         OK

     The example shows two connected FibreVault enclosures connected to
     channel 24, IDs 4 and 5, with a power supply fault in each. It should be
     noted that fccli cannot differentiate between a failed power supply and
     one that is present but powered down.


     Obtaining a detailed status of enclosure 4 on channel 24:

          fccli getstatus -c 24 -e 4

          sample output:

           Enclosure 4, status FAIL
           Vendor ID:     CLARiiON
           Product ID:    DISK ENC
           LCC SN#:

                          1 fan slot(s)
                          2 power supply slot(s)
                          1 peer LCC slot(s)

           +---------------------------------------+------+

           | 40| 41| 42| 43| 44| 45| 46| 47| 48| 49| R  C |
           +---------------------------------------+      |
           |               FANS  OK                |  OK  |
           |      PS0 FAIL           PS1  OK       |      |
           +---------------------------------------+------+

     The example shows a power supply fault on power supply FRU 0.



                                                                        Page 3

     Additionally, disk FRUs 48 and 49, although physically present, have been
     bypassed.


     Illuminating the amber LEDs associated with disk FRUs 45-49 on channel
     24:
