SecureEraseRaidHdd

Securely erases hard disks (HDD or SSD) attached to a target RAID controller system, and polls the erasing status asynchronously or synchronously. Supported on X12/H12 and later platforms.

 ExitCode = 120
 Description = Invalid Redfish response

Notes

This command is supported on X12/H12 and later platforms.
Before erasing, use GetRaidCfg to confirm the JBOD mode of the RAID controller system is "Disabled," and that the disks to be erased are in "Unconfigured good drive" state. Use --precheck to see model, manufacturer, ID, enclosure ID, disk ID, F/W state, and Secure-Erase support for each disk.
If a target disk is accepted for secure erase or is being securely erased, a task ID is returned; remember the task ID(s) for polling status. If a disk is not allowed for secure erase, there is no task ID.
Poll erasing status immediately by appending --sync to the initial erase command, or later using --tsk_id.
In multiple systems, the --sync option is not allowed with --tsk_id for polling the erasing status on the RAID controller system.
The Secure-Erase function for IT/HBA RAID controllers is supported by OEM FW only.
For Windows, argument values can be quoted or unquoted, e.g. --enc_id "ALL" or --enc_id ALL.
Supported RAID cards include: AOC-S3108L-H8iR(-16DD), AOC-SLG3-2H8M2, AOC-S3808L-L8iR, AOC-S3816L-L16iR, AOC-S3908L-H8iR(-16DD/-32DD), AOC-S3916L-H16iR(-32DD), AOC-S3808L-L8iT1, AOC-S3816L-L16iT1, AOC-SLG4-2H8M2, AOC-SMG4-2M2, AOC-SMG4-2E1S, AOM-S3808NI-4NM, AOM-M3808NI-4HM.
