HA access characteristics within List SAS Disk Array Configuration

You can view the current and preferred access states in the Description column for the disk arrays.

The List SAS Disk Array Configuration option in the IBM® SAS Disk Array Manager will display the current and preferred access states in the Description column for the disk arrays. The current and preferred access states will be displayed after the description of the disk array (similar to the display HA access optimization) where the entries in the two descriptive columns indicate O for Optimized and N for Non Optimized. The following sample output is displayed when the List SAS Disk Array Configuration option is selected.

Note: The HA access characteristics are only displayed for disk arrays with a Preferred Access state other than Cleared. Disk arrays with a Cleared Preferred Access state, by default, are optimized on the primary adapter.
