The Promise Array Management (PAM) utility provides an easy way to set up, monitor, modify and repair your RAID. PAM works with the Promise FastTrak card, SuperTrak card and UltraTrak RAID subsystem. PAM watches the RAID and when significant events happen, or it discovers a problem, the Message Agent sends a warning to the Message Server.

Step 1: Start the PromiseUtil to enable the Pegasus command line interface.

  1. Open a terminal window on your Mac.
  2. Type promiseutil to start the Promise command line interface for Pegasus.
  3. You will get an information screen showing each Pegasus system attached to your Mac.

List available RAID HBAs and Subsystems
Type # Model Alias WWN
hba 1 * Pegasus R6 2000-0001-5530-9404
hba 2 Pegasus R6 2000-0001-5530-9416
Totally 2 HBA(s) and 0 Subsystem(s)
-------------------------------------------------------------
The row with '*' sign refers the current working HBA/Subsystem path
To change the current HBA/Subsystem path, you may use the following command:
spath -a chgpath -t hba|subsys -p

Step 2: Choosing which Pegasus is the currently active unit for command line instructions.

  1. At the cliib> prompt, type: spath.
  2. You will get an output similiar to this:

cliib>spath

hba 1 * Pegasus R6 2000-0001-5530-9404 hba 2 Pegasus R6 2000-0001-5530-9416

Totally 2 HBA(s) and 0 Subsystem(s)

cliib>

  1. The active Pegasus will be marked with a '*' symbol.
  2. Use the spath command to change to a different Pegasus. In this example, we're going to choose Pegasus #2 above.
  3. At the cliib> prompt, type: spath -a chgpath -t hba -p 2

cliib>spath -a chgpath -t hba -p 2

  1. To verify the change, use the spath command again.

cliib>spathType # Model Alias WWN hba 1 Pegasus R6 2000-0001-5530-9404 hba 2 * Pegasus R6 2000-0001-5530-9416 Totally 2 HBA(s) and 0 Subsystem(s)

  1. Note now the '*' is on Pegasus #2. Now all command line instructions will operate on Pegasus #2 in the list.

Make sure you install the Promise Utility. if your volume is missing, Its possible that one of the drives came up missing at boot up. If a drive is not latched or detected it can lead to the Pegasus R4i marking the array “incomplete”. Here is how to address the problem. Since the volume is not online you will have to download the Promise Utility from the Promise download center Downloads.

See the following >> Link << on how to accept the incomplete array or fixing the problem then booting back up with the HDD present.
