A failure occurred in two or more hard disk drives.
•
The breaker was turned off once and then the power supply was switched
on.
Solutions:

Ask HP technical support to solve the problem.
Trouble occurs on the
application software
installed in the host
computer in order to
monitor the volumes.
Causes:
•
Access to the volume is rejected.
Solutions:

Terminate the application software which monitors the volumes.
•
Change all the XP Snapshot pair statuses to PSUS, then start the

For details about the relations between the pair status and host access, see
When the host computer
tries to access the port,
an error occurs and the
host cannot access the
port.
Causes:
•
Some ports go offline because the access to the volume on the other
port(s) is rejected.
Solutions:
•
Wait for a while, then try the operation again.
•
If the application software is installed in the host to monitor the volume,
terminate the application.
When you are operating
Remote Web Console,
time-out occurs frequently.
Causes:
•
The load on the Remote Web Console computer is too heavy, so the
Remote Web Console computer cannot respond to the SVP.
•
The period of time until time-out occurs is set too short.
Solutions:
•
Wait for a while, then try the operation again.
•
Verify the environment parameter setting for the Remote Web console
RMI time-out period.
For information about how to set the RMI time-out period, see the HP
StorageWorks XP24000 Remote Web Console User’s Guide.
When the problems cannot be solved by the solutions in
