General StoreOnce maintenance activities Preparing for StoreOnce maintenance activities Procedure 1. Make sure that you have the correct Maintenance and Service guide for your product. There are a number of different models, and each product model has its own guide. 2.
Powering on the system after completing maintenance activities Procedure 1. For StoreOnce 4900 Backup, power on the disk enclosures and wait for 30 seconds. The power-on button is on the rear of Drawer 2. 2. For other StoreOnce systems, power on any expansion shelves. The power-on button is on the rear of the expansion shelf.
The Status field will show which components are being updated and which updates have been completed In some cases, when the firmware update has been loaded, you will need to perform a reboot to complete the firmware update. If a reboot is required, a pop-up message will appear on your GUI screen after loading is completed.

Identifying problems Example alert for a failed disk It is possible to configure recipients for SNMP traps or email alerts, as described in the HPE StoreOnce Backup User Guide for your product. These users will be notified of any problems with hardware components.
Viewing the failed disk in the Hardware tree NOTE: The disks in a StoreOnce 4900 server unit are different from those in the expansion shelf. Be sure to order the correct replacement disk. Procedure • The following example shows the Hardware tree expanded to show the disks in a server unit. The status of these is OK.
Using the StoreOnce CLI to identify a failed disk The following StoreOnce CLI commands can also be used to identify hardware problems and to navigate the hardware tree for details about a specific component. • hardware show problems • hardware show status <Dev-id> The following example illustrates how to use the StoreOnce CLI commands to find out more about the disk failures we have identified on the StoreOnce GUI.

The HP p1228 RAID controller The p1228 RAID card in a StoreOnce 4900 server The HPE StoreOnce 4900 Backup system uses the HP p1228 RAID controller fitted with a RAID cache module and SuperCapacitor. The HPE StoreOnce 4900 Backup has two RAID controllers. Cables connect the external SAS ports on the controller to the SAS storage in the disk enclosure(s).
POST messages where the controller may report an error or a lockup code. In these cases contact HP Support and provide information about the reported error code. Other forms of non-catastrophic RAID controller failure, or failure of the second RAID controller on the StoreOnce 4900 Backup, will be reported in the Event Log on the StoreOnce GUI.
If RAID fails and the HPE StoreOnce Backup System is still functioning, you can also get information, including license keys, by generating a Support ticket. Replacing the HP p1228 controller IMPORTANT: When replacing the p1228 controller be sure to always replace the card into the same slot from which it was removed.

TIP: You may need to expand the Location column to identify the bay to which the drive belongs. (Portidentifies which of the two ports on the RAID controller the disk enclosure is connected to and Box identifies the drawer.) You can also use the Turn Beacon LED Onbutton that you can see in above screenshot to ensure that you have the right disk when opening the drawer.
6. Close the hard drive drawer. You will hear it click into place when it is securely closed. The fans will return to normal speed when both drawers are properly closed. WARNING: Pinch hazard—Keep hands out of front and rear of chassis when closing hard drive drawers.
