okay bestie, welcome to the hpsa_lsmplugin(1) page, part of libStorageMgmt ✨ settle in, we're gonna talk about your HP SmartArray and it's gonna be great.

🎀 NAME 🎀

hpsa_lsmplugin — the LibstorageMgmt HP SmartArray plugin, aka the little guy that lets you manage your HP SmartArray. no cap.

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so the LibstorageMgmt hpsa plugin lets you manage HP SmartArray through the vendor tool hpssacli[1]. that's the whole vibe.

and the hpsa_lsmplugin executable file? that one's for the libStorageMgmt daemon to execute when a client user specifies the hpsa plugin in the URI. it's giving backstage pass 🫶

---

🦋 URI 🦋

to use this plugin, you gotta set your URI to this format, periodt:

hpsa://
    or
hpsa://?hpssacli=<path_of_hpssacli>

URI parameters

these URI parameters are supported by this plugin, iykyk:

• hpssacli — this parameter is used to specify the path of the hpssacli tool. by default, this plugin will try these paths used by the hpssacli rpm: /usr/sbin/hpssacli and /opt/hp/hpssacli/bld/hpssacli. it'll go looking for them itself, main character energy 💅

---

👑 ROOT PRIVILEGE 👑

heads up bestie: this plugin requires both the lsmd daemon and the API client to be running as the root user. no shortcuts, no exceptions. please check manpage lsmd.conf (5) for detail. 🫡

---

🌈 SUPPORTED HARDWARES 🌈

please refer to the HP website for the hardware support status of hpssacli. the detailed support status can be queried via:

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

literally just ask and it will tell you ✨

---

🔥 FIREWALL RULES 🔥

this plugin only executes hpssacli on localhost. no network connection required. she stays home, she's lowkey an introvert 🧚
