megacli doth sucketh mightily, but its a little less annoying when you
realize that A) the -'s are all optional (so don't use them) and B) the
commands are case independent and I find them considerably less annoying
to type as all lower case.
so.. this
|megacli cfgldadd
r6||||[||20||:||0||,||20||:||1||,||20||:||2||,||20||:||3||,||20||:||4||,||20||:||5||,||20||:||6||,||20||:||7||,||20||:||8||,||20||:||9||,||20||:||10||]
a0|
|m||egacli pdhsp set physdrv[||20||:||11||,20:12||] a0
instead of...
|
|MegaCli64 -CfgLdAdd
-r6||[||20||:||0||,||20||:||1||,||20||:||2||,||20||:||3||,||20||:||4||,||20||:||5||,||20||:||6||,||20||:||7||,||20||:||8||,||20||:||9||,||20||:||10||]
-a0|
||MegaCli64 -P|dHsp -Set -PhysDrv[||20||:||11||,||20:12||||] -a0|
(where megacli is a symlink to /path/to/MegaCli64 ...)
also I found a python script online called megaclisas-status and
modified it to better suit my needs, this gives a MUCH nicer output for
drive status than the native commands...
