Replacing a Bad Controller When in Active-Active Mode

If one controller detects that the other has a problem, it will kill it and output an appropriate event.

If it is determined that the controller has a permanent failure, then it must be replaced. Replace

the bad controller and load the replacement controller with the same firmware level as the

surviving controller. After the firmware load completes, the new controller will complete its

boot and go online.

Warning and Error Events

There are a number of conditions that trigger warning and error events, activate the alarm,

and affect the Status and Error LEDs. The alarm will sound when the Disk Array Administrator

Utility displays a warning or error event. Press Esc to turn the alarm OFF.

Warnings

Warning events alert the user of any problems associated with the controller or array. When

a warning event occurs, the problem should be corrected as soon as possible. Table C-1

defines the warning events and the recommended action to take for each.
