Changing the Controller Properties

NOTE:  This task is not supported on PERC hardware controllers running in HBA mode.

Does my controller support this feature? See Supported features.

The Change Controller Properties task provides you with the option to change multiple controller properties simultaneously. This task is available only on SAS controllers with firmware version 6.1 and later.

You can change any or all the following properties using the Change Controller Properties task:

  • Rebuild rate.
  • BGI rate
  • Check consistency rate.
  • Reconstruction rate
  • Cancel check consistency on error.
  • Revertible hot spare
  • Auto replace member on predictive failure.
  • Persistent hot spare
  • Non-RAID HDD disk cache policy
NOTE: You can also set these properties using the command-line interface. For more information, see the Server Administrator Command-Line Interface User’s Guide.
NOTE: The revertible hot spare, auto replace member on predictive failure, persistent hot spare, and non-RAID HDD disk cache policy properties cannot be modified on PERC 12 controllers.
