Addresses all controllers in the system
• <model>
Controllers of a particular type indicated by the <model) string are addressed.
To change the mode of the controller use saupdate set_mode <controller> <hba | raid> [-
f].
NOTE: A system reset or a reconnect-r is required after changing from HBA to RAID mode.
An alert message about the possible data loss is displayed when a mode change command is issued. A
confirmation is required before the actual mode change is made. This ensures unintentional change of
mode does not happen.
The –f option indicates the user is aware of the changes that are being made and does not require a
warning message or a confirmation regarding the mode change.
NOTE: Commands are not case-sensitive. A system reset or reconnect-r followed by map –r is
required when changing from HBA mode to RAID mode.
