Action
Have the server serviced.
This is a follow-on message to a preceding message. Follow
the Action instructions for the preceding message to resolve
the problem.
Press one of the following keys:
F2 Detailed description. Press this key for a detailed
description of the problem, such as the example
messages above.
F4 Retry. Press this key after correcting the problem.
For example, press F4 after you move the physical
drive to its previously assigned location, or after you
install the original physical drives back in the server.
F5 Change the configuration and set the drive to
defunct. Press this key to accept the new state that
the ServeRAID controller will assign to the drive.
For example, the ServeRAID controller will assign
the drive a state of defunct or empty.
Note: A physical drive in the defunct state does not
necessarily mean that you need to replace the
drive. Before you replace the drive, ensure that:
1. All cables are connected properly to the
backplane or system board, and to the physical
drive. Also, ensure that all cables inside the
server are connected properly.
2. The hot-swap drive trays are seated properly in
the drive bay.
3. If multiple drives fail in separate arrays (one
physical drive per array), then replace each of
the defunct physical drives. If multiple physical
drives fail at the same time within the same
array, contact your IBM service representative.
See "Rebuilding a defunct drive" on page 68 for
more information.
After you perform these steps, if the physical drive
does not function properly, replace the drive.
