Managing the RLM with Data ONTAP

Data ONTAP commands and AutoSupport options

You manage the RLM from the storage system using the Data ONTAP rlm commands and changing the settings of AutoSupport settings that are used by the RLM.

Data ONTAP rlm commands

The following table describes the Data ONTAP rlm commands that you enter at the storage system prompt to manage the RLM. These commands are also described in the na_rlm man page.

Note
When you enter some of these commands, there might be a pause of a few seconds while the storage system queries the RLM. This is normal behavior.
