NAME mpsutil, mprutil - Utility for managing LSI Fusion-MPT 2/3 controllers
SYNOPSIS mpsutil version mpsutil [-u unit] show adapter mpsutil [-u unit] show adapters mpsutil [-u unit] show all mpsutil [-u unit] show cfgpage page [num] [addr] mpsutil [-u unit] show devices mpsutil [-u unit] show enclosures mpsutil [-u unit] show expanders mpsutil [-u unit] show iocfacts mpsutil [-u unit] set ncq [enable|disable] mpsutil [-u unit] flash save [firmware|bios] [file] mpsutil [-u unit] flash update [firmware|bios] file
DESCRIPTION The mpsutil utility can be used to display or modify various parameters on LSI Fusion-MPS 2 controllers.
The mprutil utility can be used to display or modify various parameters on LSI Fusion-MPS 3 controllers.
Both the mprutil and mpsutil commands behave identically.
Each invocation of mpsutil consists of zero or more global options followed by a command. Commands may support additional optional or required arguments after the command.
Currently one global option is supported:
-u unit unit specifies the unit of the controller to work with. If no unit is specified, then unit 0 is used.
The mpsutil utility supports several different groups of commands. The first group of commands provide information about the controller. The second group of commands are used to manager controller-wide operations.
The informational commands include:
version Displays the version of mpsutil.
show adapter Displays information about the controller such as the model number or firmware version.
show adapters Displays a summary of all adapters.
show all Displays all devices, expanders and enclosures.
show devices Displays all devices.
show iocfacts Displays IOC Facts messages.
show cfgpage page [num] [addr] Dump raw config page in hex.
Controller management commands include:
set ncq [enable|disable] Enables or disables NCQ in the NVRAM of the card.
flash save [firmware|bios] [file] Save the firmware or bios from the controller into a local file. If no file is specified then the file will be named firmware or bios.
flash update [firmware|bios] file Replace the firmware or bios from the controller with the one specified via file.

HISTORY The mpsutil utility first appeared in FreeBSD 11.0.
TODO Flash operations (save/update) are not supported on big-endian architectures.
