I use a lot of HP storage and yes, hpacucli is totally brain dead. I hate how you have to use really abstract commands like "ctrl all show" and "set target ctrl slot=0", before I can even just type a simple "show config". How about just making it so we can type "show config" and see the configuration and status of all attached controllers? Is that so hard? Usually every controller in a server will have at least one RAID volume hanging off of it. Hpacucli is nice, because I can configure storage right from the OS, but it sure isn't user friendly. LOL!
