Configure Storage background task

Caution:

This command is not intended for general customer use and should be used only as directed by Customer Access Support (see My Oracle Support).

The Configure Storage command is issued using the PMAC GUI under Storage > Configure SAN Storage. The command accesses one or more XML files containing the configuration settings for the storage devices. The files specify the Vdisks, Global Spares, and Host Volumes to be configured on the Controllers and Hosts. The files also can be used to remove an existing configuration. The command executes as a background task.

Once issued, the Configure Storage command cannot be stopped. An authorized user can delete the background task.The deletion stops the tracking of its status but does not stop the actual installation.

On the Background Task Monitoring page on the PMAC GUI, the user can monitor the progress as the Configure Storage background task executes. The Status field shows the current step being executed.
