Path Status

Examples of Recovery Procedure

External device setting

changed

Settings of the LU paths may have been changed by LUN Manager.
Check the settings of the LU paths. If the settings of the LU paths have been

changed, change the settings back to the ones when the volume is mapped.

Or use External Storage to perform the Delete LU operation and perform

the Add LU operation again.

Illegal request or
Response error

The volume may have been set as a pair volume for data copy.
Check if the volume is set as a pair volume of Business Copy, Continuous

Access, or some other copy program. If the volume is set as a pair volume,

the volume may be protected because of the pair status. When the volume is

protected, change the pair status or delete the pair.

Cannot detect port

There is a problem with connection to the external storage system. The

following are possible causes:

The fibre cable is not physically connected in the proper way.

The setting of the topology does not match between the external port

and the target port.

If the external storage system is connected through switches, the settings

for the switches may not be appropriate.

Check if the fibre cable is connected properly, and then set the Fibre Channel

port properly using LUN Manager.
The LUN security may have been set by Hitachi SANtinel.
Check if the LUN security is set or not. If the LUN security is set, remove the

setting of the LUN security.

SVS200 Storage System

When you connect a SVS200 storage system as the external storage system, you need to set the port to

the host group for the Windows hosts (host mode 0C: Windows, host mode 2C: Windows Extension).
Also, the port attribute must be the target port or the RCU target port.

Note:

If you are using the microcode that does not support the SVS200 storage system, the SVS200

storage system is recognized as the XP12000 storage system. If you need the connected external storage

system to be recognized as the SVS200 storage system, use the microcode of the version that supports the

SVS200 storage system (which is the microcode version 50-07-0X-XX/XX or higher). If you have used

an earlier microcode version that does not support the SVS200 storage system to map the volumes of

the SVS storage system, delete the setting of mapping and then change the microcode version to the

one that supports the SVS200 storage system.
