The mpsutil utility can be used to display or modify various parameters on LSI Fusion-MPS 2 controllers.

The mprutil utility can be used to display or modify various parameters on LSI Fusion-MPS 3 controllers.

Both the mprutil and mpsutil commands behave identically.

Each invocation of mpsutil consists of zero or more global options followed by a command. Commands may support additional optional or required arguments after the command.

Currently one global option is supported:

unit
unit specifies the unit of the controller to work with. If no unit is specified, then unit 0 is used.

The mpsutil utility supports several different groups of commands. The first group of commands provide information about the controller. The second group of commands are used to manager controller-wide operations.

The informational commands include:

Displays the version of mpsutil.
Displays information about the controller such as the model number or firmware version.
Displays a summary of all adapters.
Displays all devices, expanders and enclosures.
Displays all devices.
Displays all expanders.
Displays all enclosures.
Displays IOC Facts messages.
[num] [addr]
Dump raw config page in hex.

Controller management commands include:

[enable|disable]
Enables or disables NCQ in the NVRAM of the card.
[firmware|bios] [file]
Save the firmware or bios from the controller into a local file. If no file is specified then the file will be named firmware or bios.
[firmware|bios] file
Replace the firmware or bios from the controller with the one specified via file.

mpr(4), mps(4)

The mpsutil utility first appeared in FreeBSD 11.0.

Flash operations (save/update) are not supported on big-endian architectures.
