En.02 information condition—drive missing – HP 3000 Enterprise Virtual Array User Manual

Page 117

background image

When the drive is Fibre Channel-compatible, the EMU compares the drive link rate with the I/O

module link rate, the loop link rate.

If the EMU cannot determine the drive link rate, the EMU activates the drive bypass function for one

minute. During this time the EMU continually checks the drive to determine the link rate.

If the EMU determines the drive cannot operate at the Fibre Channel link rate set by the I/O

module, the drive bypass function ends and the drive is placed on the loop. This does not

generate a condition report.

The EMU issues the condition report 0.1.en.01 when the drive link rate is incompatible with

Fibre Channel link rate.

When the EMU cannot determine the drive link rate during the one-minute drive bypass time, the

EMU places the drive on the loop. This process allows the drive to negotiate for an address.
• If negotiation indicates the link rates are compatible, the EMU rechecks the drive link rate to

verify compatibility.

• If negotiation indicates the link rates are incompatible, an error condition exists and drive

loop data transfers stop.

This condition report remains active until the problem is corrected. The problem affects disk drive en.

Therefore, correction to prevent the possible failure of other elements is not required.
Complete the following procedure to correct this problem:

1.

Record all six characters of the condition report.

2.

Replace the defective drive with:
• A Fibre Channel-compatible drive.
• A Fibre Channel drive capable of operating at a link rate supported by I/O modules and

transceivers.

3.

Observe the EMU to ensure the error is corrected.

4.

If unable to correct the problem, contact your authorized service representative.

0.1.en.02 INFORMATION condition—Drive missing

The drive is improperly installed or missing. Either option could affect the enclosure air flow and cause an

overtemperature condition for another element.

This error remains active for one minute, or until the problem is corrected, whichever occurs first.

Immediate correction is not required. However, correction cannot be delayed indefinitely.

Complete the following procedure to correct this problem.

1.

Record all six characters of the condition report.

2.

Remove and install the drive to ensure that it is properly installed.

3.

Observe the EMU to ensure the error is corrected.

4.

If removing and installing the drive did not correct the problem, install a replacement drive or a

drive blank.

5.

Observe the EMU to ensure the error is corrected.

6.

If unable to correct the problem, contact your authorized service representative.

0.1.en.03 INFORMATION condition—Drive software lock active

Some enclosures have a software-activated lock that prevents physically removing a drive while this feature

is active. This feature can be activated even when an enclosure does not have a physical lock. Removing

a drive when this feature is active generates a condition report. This error remains active for 15 seconds.
No action is required to correct this condition.
