All logical drives from the source array will be transferred. The original array will be deleted and its data drives will be freed as unassigned drives. The drive types at source and destination arrays can be different. This allows moving data from SATA to SAS, or SAS to SATA. However, the drive types comprising the array must still be of the same type. Heal Array Allows the replacement of failed or degraded physical drives in an array with healthy physical drives. The original array and logical drive numbering will be unaffected after the replacement. The replacement physical drives must be of the same interface type (such as SAS, SATA and etc.) as the original drives. The operation will be available only if enough unassigned physical drives of the correct size are available. Spilt Mirror Backup\Rollback Create Split Mirror Backup This task splits an array that consists of one or more RAID1, RAID 1+0, RAID 1 (ADM), or RAID 10 (ADM) and creates two arrays: A primary array and a backup array. The new arrays have the following characteristics: If the original array contained RAID 1 or RAID 1+0 drives, the primary array will contain RAID 0 drives. If the original array contained RAID 1 (ADM) drives, the primary array will contain RAID 1 drives. If the original array contained RAID 10 (ADM) drives, the primary array will contain RAID 1+0 drives. The backup array always contains RAID 0 logical drives. The primary array continues to be fully accessible to the operating system while the backup array is hidden from the operating system. This feature is useful when you want to capture a backup before performing a risky operation. The Manage Split Mirror Backup operation can be used to either re-mirror the primary and backup arrays, or to make the backup array into an independent array which can be accessed by the operating system. Manage Split Mirror Backup This task allows for the management of the primary and backup arrays created by the Create Split Mirror Backup operation. When the operation is performed on a primary array, the following options are available: Re-mirror the array and preserve the existing data. Discard the backup array. This option re-creates the original mirrored array with the contents of the primary array. Re-mirror the array and rollback to the contents of the backup array. Discard existing data. This option re-creates the mirrored array but restores its contents to the point in time when the backup array was created. It is not recommended that this option be performed online, or while the logical drive to be rolled back is mounted or in use by the operating system. Activate the backup array. This option makes the backup array fully accessible to the operating system. Note: In the case where the primary array is no longer available. This task can only be used to activate the backup array. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HP Array Configuration Utility CLI for Linux Version: 9.10.22.0 (Optional) Related File: hpacucli-%product.version%.i386.rpm hpacucli-%product.version%.x86_64.rpm Enhancement Note: Added support for the following controllers: HP Dynamic Smart Array B120i HP Dynamic Smart Array B320i HP Smart Array P822 Now officially supporting and providing native X64 versions in addition to existing 32 bit versions Added new features requiring a valid SAAP 2.0 (Smart Array Advanced Pack) license key: Replace Array Allows the transfer of contents of an array to an existing empty array or a new array.
