NAME

       drobom - CLI for managing drobo units

SYNOPSIS

       drobom [ options ] <command> [ arguments... ]

DESCRIPTION

   options is one of:
       -c, --command
	      the command to execute.

       -d, --device
	      the device to operate on (default searches all devices and picks first one found.)

       -h, --help
	      print a usage message

       -v, --verbose
	      verbosity,  a  bit-field to trigger increased output as needed, mostly for debugging.  1 - General, 2 - Hardware Dialog, 4 - Initia-
	      tion, 8 - DMP layer, 16- Detection 64 will print everything... (default: 0, as terse as possible.)  128 enables simulation mode (for
	      testing when no Drobo is available. Dangerous!)

       -V, --version
	      print the version id.

   command is one of:
       blink  identify the drobo by making the lights blink

       diag   dump diagnostics file into /tmp directory

       diagprint <diagdumpfile>
	      print diagnostics file to standard output

	      <diagdumpfile> the diagnostic dump file to print.

       fwcheck query drobo.com for updates to firmware for the given Drobo
	      fwload  load a specific firmware for the given Drobo. Arguments:

	      <fwimage> the firmware file to load.

       fwupgrade
	      upgrade the firmware to the latest and greatest, recommended by DRI

       help   print this text

       info  <toprint>
	      print  information  on  a  Drobo.  The  <toprint> argument is a comma separated list of the values below (default is to print all of
	      them): config, capacity, protocol, settings, slots, firmware, status, options, luns

       list   show device files for all Drobos found.

       name  <newname>
	      Set the name of the Drobo to the given value ( only firmware > 1.3.0 supports this command )

       settime sync Drobo's clock to UTC

       setlunsize  Set the size of LUNS on device. Arguments:

	      <sz> integer number of TiB to set the lunsize to

	      <confirmation> Specify 'PleaseEraseMyData' if you really mean it

	      Note: After execution, Drobo reboots, wait a few minutes before accessing again

       shutdown
	      shutdown drobo (DRI calls this 'standby')

       status report how is the Drobo doing

   device
       raw block device of a drobo (i.e. /dev/sdz) . If not given, assumes all attached drobos.

NAME

       nvram - manipulate firmware NVRAM variables

SYNOPSIS

       nvram [ -p ] [ -f filename ] [ -d name ] [ -c ] [ name [= value ]] ...

DESCRIPTION

       The  nvram command allows manipulation of firmware NVRAM variables.  It can be used to get or set a variable.  It can also be used to print
       all of the variables or set a list of variables from a file.  Changes to NVRAM variables are only saved by clean restart or shutdown.

       In principle, name can be any string.  In practice, not all strings will be accepted.  New World  machines  can	create	new  variables	as
       desired.  Some variables require administrator privilege to get or set.

       The  given  value  must match the data type required for name.  Binary data can be set using the %xx notation, where xx is the hex value of
       the byte.  The type for new variables is always binary data.

OPTIONS

       -d name
	      Deletes the named firmware variable.

       -f filename
	      Set firmware variables from a text file.	The file must be a list of "name value" statements.  The first space on each line is taken
	      to be the separator between "name" and "value".  If the last character of a line is , the value extends to the next line.

       -x     Use  XML	format	for reading and writing variables.  This option must be used before the -p or -f options, since arguments are pro-
	      cessed in order.

       -c     Delete all of the firmware variables.

       -p     Print all of the firmware variables.

EXAMPLES

	      example% nvram boot-args="-s rd=*hd:10"

       Set the boot-args variable to "-s rd=*hd:10".  This would specify single user mode with the root device in hard drive partition 10.

	      example% nvram my-variable="String One%00String Two%00%00"

       Create a new variable, my-variable, containing a list of two C-strings that is terminated by a NUL.

	      example% nvram -d my-variable

       Deletes the variable named my-variable.
