The invraid utility is used to obtain
RAID settings.
The table below provides the supported RAID adapter information
by PRAID. PRAID works by parsing the output of other RAID configuration
utilities. To accomplish this, the utilities must be in the system
search path.

Examples
To dump the
information about all RAID controllers in a system to a file in INI
file format with the name
myraid.ini, use the
/I parameter
as shown here:
invraid.exe /i /f:myraid.ini
