New to the HP Array Configuration Utility? Me too, so I did some Googling and found an awesome cheat sheet. I don’t want to steal any credit from its original authors, but I do think it should be reposted for archival. I’d like a copy of it for my own reference, so I decided to toss it here on Binary Impulse so others might stumble across it.
Here’s the original article: http://www.datadisk.co.uk/html_docs/redhat/hpacucli.htm
