.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBscmadm\fR command provides various options for controlling and gathering
information about a storage device cache.
.SH OPTIONS
.sp
.LP
If no options are specified, \fBscmadm\fR displays a list of configured cache
descriptors with disknames, options, and global options. The \fBscmadm\fR
command supports the following options:
.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fB-h\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Displays usage information for the \fBscmadm\fR command.

Reads the configuration and enables the storage device cache with those
parameters. See \fBdscfg\fR(1M).

\fB\fB-C\fR [\fIparameter\fR[=[\fIvalue\fR]] ...]\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Sets or displays the configuration parameters. If the \fB-C\fR option is
specified with no arguments the current cache configuration parameters are
displayed. If \fIparameter\fR is specified, the current value of
\fIparameter\fR is displayed. If \fIparameter=value\fR is specified, the
current value of \fIparameter\fR is displayed and the parameter is changed to
\fIvalue\fR.  If \fIvalue\fR is omitted, or if \fIvalue\fR is specified as the
null string, " ", or as "-", the parameter is deleted from the configuration
and the system uses the default value. Multiple parameters can be specified in
a single invocation of the \fBscmadm\fR command. A change in a configuration
parameter takes effect only when the cache is next restarted.

\fB\fB-o\fR { \fBsystem\fR | \fBcd\fR | \fIdiskname\fR } [\fIoption\fR]\fR

.sp .6
.RS 4n
Sets or displays the options for the system or for the cache device specified
by \fBcd\fR or \fIdiskname\fR. If the \fIoption\fR \fBrdcache\fR or
\fBnordcache\fR is specified, the system or specified cache device is set to
that option. The option is saved as part of the configuration so that the
option persists. See \fBdscfg\fR(1M). To notify the system to "forget" about a
saved option, use the \fBforget\fR option. This does not change the option; it
just removes the option from the saved configuration. If no option is
specified, current options are displayed. The \fBrdcache\fR option is set as
the default. The \fIoption\fRs are defined as follows:
.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBrdcache\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Data blocks are likely to be referenced again and should remain in cache.
.RE

.sp
.ne 2
.mk
.na
\fB\fBnordcache\fR\fR
.ad
.sp .6
.RS 4n
Data blocks are unlikely to be referenced again and should be treated as least
recently used, so that other blocks can remain in the cache longer.

.ne 2

\fB\fB-m\fR { \fBcd\fR | \fIdiskname\fR | \fBall\fR }\fR

Displays the cache descriptor and diskname map for the device specified by
\fBcd\fR or \fIdiskname\fR or, if you specify \fBall\fR, displays the cache
descriptors and diskname map for all storage devices on the system.
