If the Host Cannot Communicate With the Storage System
If the SCSI devices spin up, but the host cannot access the SCSI devices, do the
following on the storage system:
•
Verify all of the drive modules are inserted correctly and latched. (It may
be necessary to remove and reinstall all hot-swap disk modules.)
•
Make sure the system is configured properly, including the devices
installed in the SCSI device shelves. (Refer to the cable management
label in the storage system and this manual.)
•
Verify the switches on the back of the hot-swap cages are set correctly.
(Refer to Table 2-2 or the manufactured configuration label to see default
settings.)
•
Verify the switches and jumpers on the SCSI device trays are properly set.
(Refer to the manuals that came with the devices.)
•
Make sure that the active terminator is attached to the end of the SCSI
device cable C1, and that terminators are not installed on any other
devices. (The hot-swap cages are self-terminating.)
•
Verify the SCSI device address for each device is unique.
•
Make sure the SCSI devices are single-ended devices and that a
differential SCSI device has not been added to the bus. (If a differential
drive is used, the power indicator will not light.)
•
Make sure that no SCSI device is set to SCSI address 7; address 7 is the
SCSI ID used by the SCSI controller.
If the SCSI devices spin up, but the host cannot access the SCSI devices, do the
following on the host system:
•
Verify the host system operates correctly without the storage system
attached.
•
Verify the external SCSI cables are firmly connected to the storage
system.
•
Verify the external SCSI cable(s) used are those recommended by HP for
the storage system.
•
Make sure all SCSI adapter cards are properly installed.
