controller

Displays or modifies the configuration of one or both Controllers and performs FRU replacement procedures.

SYNOPSIS

controller { [ ‑beacon | ‑command | ‑completeFru | ‑discardFBM | ‑forceFailure | ‑list | ‑modify | ‑modifyAgentHaFlags | ‑reenable | ‑rejoin | ‑remove | ‑replaceFru | ‑reset | ‑runDiagnostics ] | [ ‑usage | ‑help ] }

DESCRIPTION

The controller command performs the following operations:

Obtains status and other details.
Prepares the Oracle FS System for maintenance.
Provisions ports.
Assigns peers.
Performs diagnostics.
Modifies the number that is displayed on the chassis.
Issues native Controller commands.

Note: In most instances, when replacing a FRU, you use Guided Maintenance, not the Oracle FS CLI. In rare instances, however, Oracle Customer Support might direct you to use the FSCLI. When issuing the controller commands, follow the instructions that are provided by Oracle Customer Support
