Set storage array controller battery learn cycle

Contributors netapp-driley

The set storageArray learnCycleDate controller command sets controller battery learn cycles.

Supported Arrays

This command applies to any individual storage array, including the E2700, E5600, E2800, E5700, EF600 and EF300 arrays, as long as all SMcli packages are installed.

Roles

To execute this command on an E2800, E5700, EF600, or EF300 storage array, you must have the Storage Admin role.

Context

Note

To set individual learn cycles for each controller in the storage array, send this command to both controllers.
Note

The learn cycles are not linked together and so a disruption in one controller battery learn cycle will not impact the learn cycle for the battery in the other controller.
Note

A learn cycle might take several hours to complete.

Syntax

set storageArray learnCycleDate (controller[(a| b)] )
(daysToNextLearnCycle=numberOfDays |
day=dayOfTheWeek) time=HH:MM

Parameters

Parameter Description

controller

The controller for which you want to specify a battery learn cycle. Valid controller identifiers are a or b, where a is the controller in slot A, and b is the controller in slot B. Enclose the controller identifier in square brackets ([ ]). If you do not specify a controller, the controller firmware returns a syntax error.

Note

Omitting this parameter sets the learn cycle for both controller batteries in a dual-controller array.

daysToNextLearnCycle

Valid values are 0 through 7, where 0 is immediately and 7 is in seven days. The daysToNextLearnCycle parameter takes place up to seven days after the next scheduled learn cycle.

day

Valid values for the day parameter include the days of the week (Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday). Setting the day causes the next learn cycle to be scheduled on the specified day, after the currently scheduled learn cycle.

time

The time in 24-hour format; for example 8:00 a.m. is entered as 08:00. Nine o'clock p.m. is entered as 21:00, and 9:30 p.m. is entered as 21:30.

Example

set storageArray learnCycleDate controller [a] daysToNextLearnCycle=4 time=08:30;

Notes

You can set the learn cycle to occur only once during a seven-day period.

The time parameter selects a specific time that you want to run the learn cycle. If a value is not entered, the command uses a default value of 00:00 (midnight).

If the day and time specified are in the past, the next learn cycle takes place on the next possible day specified.
