SCSI physical drives
Select a SCSI physical drive from the SCSI controller submenu to display the following
information:
•
Status—Displays the status of the physical drive selected. The following values are valid:
— OK—The physical drive is operating normally.
— Failed—The physical drive has failed and can no longer return data. The drive might
need to be replaced.
— Not Configured—The physical drive is not configured. Ensure that all of the drive
switches are properly set.
— Bad Cable—A physical drive is not responding. Check the cables connected to the drive.
— Predictive Failure—One of the physical drive thresholds has been exceeded.
— Offline—The physical drive is offline and can no longer return data. No further status
is available.
— Missing was OK—A physical drive that was located in the system and had a status of
OK has been removed.
— Missing was Failed—A physical drive that was located in the system and had a status
of failed has been removed.
— Missing was Predictive Failure—A physical drive that was located in the system and
had a status of Predictive Failure has been removed.
— Missing was Offline—A physical drive that was located in the system and had a status
of offline has been removed.
— Unknown—The Storage Agents cannot determine the status of this drive. You might
need to upgrade your driver software or Storage Agents.
NOTE:
OK, Predictive Failure, and Unknown are the only values associated with clients.
•
Action—Displays the action that is required for this device. The possible values are valid:
— Replace Drive—Replace this drive.
— Replace S.M.A.R.T. Drive—A S.M.A.R.T. hard drive predicts imminent failure. Schedule
replacement before actual failure.
— No Action Required—The drive is operating normally and no action is required.
•
Capacity—Displays the size of the physical drive.
•
Model—Displays the model of the SCSI physical drive.
•
Firmware Version—Displays the firmware revision level of the SCSI physical drive.
•
Serial Number—Displays the serial number assigned to the physical drive. This value is
based on the serial number as returned by the SCSI inquiry command, but might have been
shortened due to space limitations. Use this item for identification purposes.
•
Service Hours—Displays the total number of hours that a physical drive has been operating.
If physical drive statistics are being saved across power cycles (check the SCSI Drive Statistics
Preserved), then this value has been kept since the physical drive was installed. Otherwise,
this value has been kept since the driver was loaded.
•
S.M.A.R.T. Support—Indicates if S.M.A.R.T. support is available for this SCSI drive. The
following values are valid:
— Not Available—Predictive failure monitoring is not available for this drive.
— Available—This drive supports predictive failure monitoring.
— Unknown—The Storage Agents cannot determine if the drive supports predictive failure
monitoring. You might need to upgrade your driver or Storage Agents.
