How to Use the PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller Command-Line Interface Utility

Resumen: This article explains how to download, install, and use the Dell PowerEdge RAID Controller (PERC) Command-Line Interface (CLI) utility to manage your RAID controller. The utility is supported on PERC Series 8 and later family controllers on hosts running Windows, Linux, or ESXi. PERCCLI can also extract RAID controller logs which contain information that allows you or Dell Technical Support to determine the status of RAID controllers and the connected storage devices to narrow down possible sources of error. ...

Using PERCCLI in Windows

Duration: 00:01:55 (hh:mm:ss)
When available, closed caption (subtitles) language settings can be chosen using the CC icon on this video player.

Perform the following procedures to install and use PERCCLI in Windows operating systems:

  1. Download the Windows PERCCLI utility from the Dell support site. Select your system, then Drivers & Downloads filtering by category SAS RAID or by using the keyword PERCCLI

  2. Extract the self-extracting downloaded file, and copy the perccli.exe and perccli64.exe files to C:\Windows\System32 directory

  3. From the command prompt, run any of the following example PERCCLI commands:

    Note: PERCCLI commands require Administrative rights in Windows operating systems.
    Note: Depending upon the version of OS and perccli, the executable may be perccli or perccli64.
     

    Command

    Action

    		 
    perccli show

     This shows a summary of controller and controller-associated information. The summary includes the number of controllers by index.

    		 
    perccli /cx show termlog

/cX specifies the controller where X is the controller index

Example: 
If the controller index was 0 the command would be
"perccli /c0 show termlog"

     Creates the RAID controller log (ttylog)

    		 
    perccli /cX /eall /sall show all > disks.txt

/cX specifies the controller where X is the controller index

Example: perccli /c0 /eall /sall show all > disks.txt

     Creates the RAID controller log with all information for all slots on the controller

    		 
    perccli /cX show eventloginfo > eventloginfo.txt

/cX specifies the controller where X is the controller index

Example: perccli /c0 show eventloginfo > eventloginfo.txt

     Creates the RAID controller log with history of the log files


Installing and using PERCCLI commands in Linux

Perform the following procedures to install and use the PERCCLI in Linux operating systems:

  1. Download the Linux PERCCLI utility from the Dell support site. Select your system, then Drivers & Downloads filtering by category SAS RAID or by using the keyword PERCCLI

  2. To install the percli RPM, run rpm -ivh <percli-x.xx-x.noarch.rpm>, or to upgrade the percli RPM, run rpm -Uvh <percli-x.xx-x.noarch.rpm>.
  3. Change the directory to /opt/MegaRAID/perccli.
  4. As a root user, run ./perccli.

  5. From the terminal window, run any of the following example PERCCLI commands:

    Note: PERCCLI commands require root privileges in Linux.

       

    Note: Depending upon the version of OS and perccli, the executable may be perccli or perccli64.
     

    Command

    Action

    		 
    ./perccli show

     This shows a summary of controller and controller-associated information. The summary includes the number of controllers by index.

    		 
    ./perccli /cX show termlog 

/cX specifies the controller where X is the controller index

Example:
If the controller index was 0 the command would be
"./perccli /c0 show termlog"

     Creates the RAID controller log (ttylog)

    		 
    ./perccli /cX /eall /sall show all > disks.txt

/cX specifies the controller where X is the controller index

Example: ./perccli /c0 /eall /sall show all > disks.txt

     Creates the RAID controller log with all information for all slots on the controller

    		 
    ./perccli /cX show eventloginfo > eventloginfo.txt

/cX specifies the controller where X is the controller index

Example: ./perccli /c0 show eventloginfo > eventloginfo.txt

     Creates the RAID controller log with history of the log files

 

Installing and using the PERCCLI in VMware ESXi

Perform the following procedures to access the command prompt in systems using VMware:

  1. Download the VMware PERCCLI utility from the Dell support site. Select your system, then Drivers & Downloads filtering by category SAS RAID or by using the keyword PERCCLI

  2. Extract the VMware_PERCCLI_xxxxx_x.x-xxx.xxxx.tar.gz to /vmfs/volume/datastore1 on the host

  3. View the list of installed VIB packages using the following command: esxcli software vib list

  4. Install the VIB package using the command: esxcli software vib install -v /vmfs/volume/datastore1/vmware-perccli-xxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.vib --no-sig-check where /vmfs/volume/datastore1 is the path detail of the VIB.

  5. You can remove the installed VIB by using the command: esxcli software vib remove -n=vmware-esx-perccli.vib --force

  6. Run perccli by browsing to the following location: cd/opt/lsi/perccli

  7. From the terminal window, run any of the following example PERCCLI commands:
       

    Note: Depending upon the version of OS and perccli, the executable may be perccli or perccli64.

     

    Command

    Action

    		 
    ./perccli show

     This shows a summary of controller and controller-associated information. The summary includes the number of controllers by index.

    		 
    ./perccli /cX show show termlog logfile=log.txt

/cX specifies the controller where X is the controller index

Example: ./perccli /c0 show termlog logfile=log.txt

     Creates the RAID controller log (ttylog)

    		 
    ./perccli /cX /eall /sall show all > disks.txt

/cX specifies the controller where X is the controller index

Example: ./perccli /c0 /eall /sall show all > disks.txt

     Creates the RAID controller log with all information for all slots on the controller

    		 
    ./perccli /cX show eventloginfo > eventloginfo.txt

/cX specifies the controller where X is the controller index

Example: ./perccli /c0 show eventloginfo > eventloginfo.txt

     Creates the RAID controller log with history of the log files
