Installing and running Smart Storage Administrator
--------------------------------------------------------------
Installation:
SSADUCLI is distributed using Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) packages.
If there is an older version of SSADUCLI installed on the system, please
use "rpm -e ssaducli" to remove it first. Use "rpm -i <file name>" to
install the application.
Please type "man rpm" for other details regarding RPM.
The software resides in /opt/smartstorageadmin/ssaducli and the executable
name is ssaducli which is located in /usr/sbin.
When attempting to run SSADUCLI on any HPE-supported version of Linux, it is
highly recommended that you install the latest version of the HPE ProLiant
Smart RAID/HBA controller driver for your intended Linux operating system.
Drivers may be obtained by clicking on "HPE Servers, Storage and Networking"
from HPE's support website at: http://support.hpe.com
To run the command-line application:
Open a command prompt and change directory (cd) to the location
where SSADUCLI is installed. This is commonly
/opt/smartstorageadmin/ssaducli/bin.
To generate a diagnostic report, enter the following command:
ssaducli -f adu-report.zip
To generate a SmartSSD Wear gauge report, enter the following command:
ssaducli -ssd -f ssd-report.zip
More options can be found by "ssaducli -help".
Additional Notes
----------------
Both the diagnostic and SmartSSD wear gauge reports are generated in compressed
(ZIP) format.
The diagnostic report output archive contains the following files:
* ADUReport.txt => Diagnostic report in text format
* ADUReport.xml => Diagnostic report in XML format
* ADUReport.htm => HTML viewer for diagnostic report
* report.checksum => checksum file
* SlotX.txt (SlotX.old) => Controller serial output log
Note: The serial output log file(s) are only available if the "HPE Storage
Agent" daemon is installed and running.
To view the diagnostic report in a browser, extract the ADUReport.htm. Open
ADUReport.htm in the browser.
The SmartSSD wear gauge report output archive contains the following files:
* SmartSSDWearGaugeReport.txt => SmartSSD wear gauge report in text format
* SmartSSDWearGaugeReport.js => SmartSSD wear gauge report in JSON format
* SmartSSDWearGaugeReport.htm => HTML viewer for the JSON wear gauge report
To view the SmartSSD wear gauge report in a browser, extract the
SmartSSDWearGaugeReport.js, SmartSSDWearGaugeReport.htm files to a
directory (both files must reside in the same directory). Open
SmartSSDWearGaugeReport.htm in the browser.
