💖 arcconf_lsmplugin — the LibstorageMgmt Arcconf plugin bestie 💖

okay so. hi. you're here because you wanna talk to your Microsemi storage controllers and the vibe is very specific. this is arcconf_lsmplugin(1), part of the libStorageMgmt family, and honestly? she's lowkey iconic.

✨ NAME ✨

arcconf_lsmplugin — the LibstorageMgmt Arcconf plugin 🫶

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so basically, the LibstorageMgmt arcconf plugin lets you manage all your Microsemi storage controllers, and it does it through the vendor tool arcconf[1]. no cap, that's the whole deal.

and the arcconf_lsmplugin executable file? that's the little main character the libStorageMgmt daemon runs for you when a client user picks the arcconf plugin in the URI. she doesn't come out unless she's invited 💅

---

🦋 URI 🦋

to actually use this plugin, bestie, you gotta set your URI like this:

arcconf://
    or
arcconf://?arcconf=<path_of_arcconf>

🎀 URI parameters 🎀

here's what this plugin supports in the URI:

• arcconf — this one's for specifying the path of the arcconf tool. by default, this plugin will go looking for it in these paths used by the arcconf rpm: /usr/sbin/arcconf or /usr/bin/arcconf or /usr/Arcconf/arcconf. it'll try them in that order, so if your tool is chilling somewhere else, just tell her where to look 🧚

---

👑 ROOT PRIVILEGE 👑

this plugin requires both the lsmd daemon and the API client to be running as the root user. like, both of them. no exceptions, fr fr.

please check manpage lsmd.conf (5) for the details 💜

---

🌈 SUPPORTED HARDWARES 🌈

for the hardware support status of arcconf, go peek at the Microsemi website. that's where the tea lives.

and if you want the detailed support status? you can query it, bestie:

• lsm.Client.capabilities() (Python API)
• lsm_capabilities() (C API)
• lsmcli capabilities (lsmcli command line).

pick your fighter, they all ate 💅

🔥 FIREWALL RULES 🔥

good news, this plugin only executes arcconf on localhost. no network connection required. your firewall can stay unbothered, she's minding her business 🍓
