Parameter
Description
fileSystem
This option checks the 
structural integrity of the 
database.
replication
• When the 
sourceLocation 
parameter is set to disk, 
the peer RAID controller 
module initiates a block 
check.
• When the 
sourceLocation 
parameter is set to 
cache, the peer RAID 
controller module 
initiates a record check.
contentCheck
This option performs a deep 
analysis of each record's 
contents.
The default value is fileSystem.
controller
The RAID controller module that has the database 
on which you want to run the diagnostic tests. 
Valid RAID controller module identifiers are 0 or 1, 
where 0 is the RAID controller module in slot 0, 
and 1 is the RAID controller module in slot 1. 
Enclose the RAID controller module identifier in

Notes
This command runs a consistency check against a configuration database. All database records are 
checked. Error data is written to a file in the data folder on disk automatically. You do not need to specify 
an output file.
NOTE: Executing a consistency check with the diagnosticType parameter set to a value other 
than filesystem, and with the sourceLocation parameter set to onboard, can cause the 
operation to run for a long time. This can have adverse effects on host I/O processing. This 
operation should be done only under direction from the support organization.
Upon completion of the diagnostic test, the RAID controller firmware returns one of these results:
• Diagnosis completed without errors. No ZIP file created.
• Diagnosis completed with errors. Refer to the ZIP file created at:
...\Install_dir\data\FirmwareUpgradeReports\timestamp_buildNo.zip
If the diagnostic test detects an inconsistency in the configuration database, the RAID controller module 
firmware performs these actions:
• Returns a description of the inconsistency
