Adaptec Flash Utility (AFU) SAVE The SAVE command saves the contents of a controller's flash in a UFI file. The name of the UFI file is based on the controller type and cannot be changed. You must restart the computer following a SAVE command. Command Syntax The command syntax for the SAVE command is as follows: AFU SAVE [/C] [/D ] Command Switches The following switches are available: ■ /C is one or more controller IDs representing the set of controllers on which to perform the specified command. The default is 0, which means that if the computer has multiple controllers, the AFU defaults to controller 0 unless you specify otherwise. You can specify a single controller ID, for example: /C 0 multiple IDs separated by commas, for example: /C 0,2 or ALL to indicate all controllers. Note: If you are using multiple controllers, you must specify the controller you want by using the /C switch; otherwise, the AFU displays an error message and exits. ■ /D specifies the path (drive and directory) where the UFI files are located. If you do not specify the /D switch, the AFU looks for, or creates, its UFI files in the default location. Note: You cannot specify the name of a UFI file, only its path. UFI filenames are predefined, based on the controller type. C-6

Adaptec Flash Utility (AFU)
SAVE
The
SAVE
command saves the contents of a controller’s flash in a
UFI file. The name of the UFI file is based on the controller type
and cannot be changed.
You must restart the computer following a
SAVE
command.
Command Syntax
The command syntax for the
SAVE
command is as follows:
AFU SAVE [/C<Controller ID>] [/D <UFI File Path>]
Command Switches
The following switches are available:
/C
<Controller ID>
is one or more controller IDs representing
the set of controllers on which to perform the specified
command. The default is 0, which means that if the computer
has
multiple controllers, the AFU defaults to controller 0 unless you
specify otherwise.
You can specify a single controller ID, for example:
/C 0
multiple IDs separated by commas, for example:
/C 0,2
or
ALL
to indicate all controllers.
Note:
If you are using multiple controllers, you must specify
the controller you want by using the
/C
switch; otherwise, the
AFU displays an error message and exits.
/D <UFI File Path>
specifies the path (drive and directory)
where the UFI files are located. If you do not specify the
/D
switch, the AFU looks for, or creates, its UFI files in the default
location.
Note:
You cannot specify the name of a UFI file, only its path.
UFI filenames are predefined, based on the controller type.
