Format and certification hdisk 1

[kalix]

Hello,

How can i format and do certification for 10 hdisk or more in the same time ??

i alway open "diag" for each hdisk, i think it must exist a more fast solution.

Thanks.
John.

PS : pardon my english i'm french.

telnet or ssh in 10 times and do one in each session, or use the command line "diag -T etc &" and kick off one after the other, you should probably redirect the std err to a file if you take this option.

thanks.

I find more faster.
for example if i have 5 hard disk.
I do :

for i in 1 2 3 4 5 
do xterm -e ./usr/lpp/diagnostics/bin/uformat -o format -d hdisk$i &
done

i try to write a script more good and fast.
i post it when it will be good.

uformat also has a flag -c for non-interactive mode, so you can run multiple "format" commands background

for i in 1 2 3 4 5 
do
 /usr/lpp/diagnostics/bin/uformat -c -o format -d hdisk$i &
done

HTH,
