  • Page 65: Device Warnings And Precautions

    WARNING! Verify that the AC power supply branch circuit that provides power to the rack is not overloaded. Overloading AC power to the rack power supply circuit increases the risk of personal injury, fire, or damage to the equipment. The total rack load should not exceed 80 percent of the branch circuit rating. Consult the electrical authority having jurisdiction over your facility wiring and installation requirements.
  • Page 66 CAUTION: To properly ventilate the system, you must provide at least 7.6 centimeters (3.0 inches) of clearance at the front and back of the device. CAUTION: When removing or replacing a failed component, allow 30 seconds to pass before inserting a replacement component.

  • Page 67: Determining Whether A Component Is Hot-Pluggable

    Determining whether a component is hot-pluggable Before removing any serviceable part, determine whether the part is hot-pluggable or non-hot-pluggable. • If the component is hot-pluggable, a power shutdown of the device is not required for replacement of the part. • If the component is not hot-pluggable, the device must be powered down.

  • Page 68: Connecting Power To The Msa

    Connecting power to the MSA HP strongly recommends using the power cord shipped with the MSA. If using a different power cord, your power cord should be approved for use in your country. The power cord must be rated for the product and for the voltage and current marked on the electrical ratings label of the product.

  • Page 97: Capacity Expansion And Extension

    8 Capacity expansion and extension Array expansion is the addition of physical hard drives to an array that has already been configured. The capacity of these added physical hard drives may then be added to an existing LUN on the array or configured into a new LUN.
  • Page 98 Capacity expansion and extension...

  • Page 99: Hard Drive Failures And Faulted Luns

    9 Hard drive failures and faulted LUNs The purpose of fault-tolerant array configurations is to protect against data loss due to hard drive failure. Each RAID configuration has inherent limitations on the number of hard drive failures that it can tolerate. If the fault-tolerance level of a particular LUN or array configuration is exceeded, the array will be locked from any further I/O.

  • Page 100: Compromised Fault Tolerance

    • RAID 6 configurations can tolerate simultaneous failure of two hard drives in the array. Compromised fault tolerance Each RAID configuration has inherent limitations on the number of physical hard drive failures that it can tolerate. If more hard drives fail than the fault-tolerance method allows, fault tolerance is compromised. When the MSA determines that the fault tolerance of a LUN is compromised, the LUN is taken offline and subsequent I/O requests are rejected.

  • Page 101: Best Practices When Replacing Hard Drives

    b. Make copies of important data, if possible. Replace any failed hard drives and allow the Automatic Data Recovery (ADR) process to rebuild the data onto replacement drives. d. After failed hard drives have been replaced, fault tolerance may again be compromised.

    • When RAID 6 (ADG) is used, two drives can fail simultaneously (and be replaced simultaneously) without data loss. • If the offline drive is a spare, the degraded drive can be replaced. • Do not remove a failed second hard drive from an array until the first failed or missing hard drive has been replaced and the rebuild process is complete.

  • Page 103: Failure Of Another Drive During Rebuild

    Failure of another drive during rebuild If a non-correctable read error occurs on another physical drive in the array during the rebuild process, the Online LED of the replacement drive stops blinking and the rebuild abnormally terminates. If this situation occurs, restart the server and the storage system. The system may temporarily become operational long enough to allow recovery of unsaved data.
