9.27.6

Examining EVA4000 storage subsystems for errors

To examine the EVA4000 storage subsystems for errors, perform the following checks:

1.

Log in to the Command View EVA Web interface.

2.

View the events for each EVA4000 array to determine whether there are errors on the storage

hardware.

Remedial action

Refer to the Command View EVA documentation or to the online help available on the switch interface for

help with interpreting the event log and correcting errors on the storage hardware.

1.

Log in to the Fibre Channel switch.

NOTE:

To allow you to examine data on the Fibre Channel switches that connect the servers to

the EVA4000 storage arrays, the switches must be connected to a network that allows you to

access the switches using the

telnet

(1) command. If you wish, you can connect the Fibre

Channel switches to the management network (refer to Chapter 5 of the HP StorageWorks

Scalable File Share System Installation and Upgrade Guide for information on how to do this).

2.

Enter the following command to verify that the Fibre Channel switch is correctly configured and is not

reporting errors on the relevant connected switch ports:

Remedial action

If the number of errors shown on the switch comprises a large percentage of the total frames transmitted and

received (shown in the first two columns), check that all cables are correctly connected and that the switch

is set up correctly.

9.27.7

Examining SFS20 storage subsystems for errors

To examine the SFS20 storage subsystems for errors, perform the following steps:

1.

Examine the system logs for errors (see Section 9.27.5).

2.

Follow the instructions provided in Section 6.1.4 to check that the SFS20 arrays have no error

conditions.

Remedial action

The remedial actions are provided in the referenced sections.
