•
Serial Number displays the serial number of the accelerator board. Use this value to further
identify the cache controller.
•
Error Code displays the status of the cache operations. The status can be one of the following:
None - Write cache operations are currently configured and enabled for at least one
logical drive. No write cache errors have occurred. ◦
◦ Bad Configuration - Write cache operations are temporarily disabled. The Array
Accelerator board was configured for a different controller. This error could be caused
if boards were switched from one system to another. Rerun the EISA Configuration Utility
and ensure that the board has been properly configured for this system.
NOTE: If data from another system was stored on the board, rerunning EISA
Configuration will cause the data to be lost.
◦ Low Battery Power - Write cache operations are temporarily disabled due to insufficient
battery power. View the Battery Status object instance for more information.
◦ Disable Command Issued - Write cache operations are temporarily disabled. The device
driver issues this command when the server is taken down. This condition should not exist
when the system regains power.
◦ No Resources Available - Write cache operations are temporarily disabled. The controller
does not have sufficient resources to perform write cache operations. For example, when
a replaced drive is being rebuilt, there will not be sufficient resources. After the operation
that requires the resources has completed, this condition will clear and write cache
operations will resume.
◦ Board Not Connected - Write cache operations are temporarily disabled. The Array
Accelerator board has been configured but is not currently attached to the controller.
Check the alignment of the board and connections.
◦ Bad Mirror Data - Write cache operations have been permanently disabled. The Array
Accelerator board stores mirrored copies of all data. If data exists on the board when
the system is first powered up, the board performs a data compare test between the
mirrored copies. If the data does not match, an error has occurred. Data may have been
lost. Your board may need servicing.
◦ Read Failure - Write cache operations have been permanently disabled. The Array
Accelerator board stores duplicate copies of all data. While reading the data from the
board, memory parity errors have occurred so both copies were corrupted and cannot
be retrieved. Data has been lost. Have the board serviced.
◦ Write Failure - Write cache operations have been permanently disabled. This error occurs
when an unsuccessful attempt was made to write data to the Array Accelerator board.
Data could not be written to write cache memory in duplicate due to the detection of
parity errors. This error does not indicate data loss. Have the Array Accelerator board
serviced.
◦ Config Command - Write cache operations have been permanently disabled. The
configuration of the logical drives has changed. Reconfigure the Array Accelerator board.
◦ Expand in Progress Cache operations are temporarily disabled due to an expand of a
logical drive. When the expand operation completes, the accelerator will be enabled.
◦ Snapshot in Progress - Cache operations are temporarily disabled due to a snapshot
operation that is queued up or in progress. When the snapshot operation completes, the
accelerator will be enabled.
