Introduction to the 3ware 

Command Line Interface

The 3ware SATA RAID Controller Command Line Interface (CLI) for Linux, 
Windows, and FreeBSD is provided to manage 7000, 8000, and 9000-series 
3ware ATA and Serial ATA RAID controllers. Multiple 3ware RAID 
controllers can be managed using the CLI via a command line or script.

Features of the CLI

3ware CLI is a command line interface for managing 3ware RAID 
Controllers. It provides controller, logical unit, drive, enclosure, and BBU 
(Battery Backup Unit) management. It can be used in both interactive and 
batch mode, providing higher level API (application programming interface) 
functionalities.

Some CLI commands are supported only for particular models of 3ware 

RAID controllers. Wherever possible, commands are labeled to indicate when they 
are supported for only a subset of controllers. For example, commands that apply 
only to 3ware 9000 series controllers are labeled as such and are not supported for 
3ware 7000/8000 controllers. Within the 9000 series, some commands apply to 
only to models 9550SX, 9590SE, and 9650SE and not to 9500S, and are so 
labeled. A few commands apply only to models 9500S, and are labeled as such.

 

For all of the functions of the 3ware CLI to work properly, you must have the proper 
CLI, firmware, and driver versions installed. Check

 for the 

latest versions and upgrade instructions.
