Recommended Action
If this message appears and drive x
(identified by its SCSI ID) has not been
replaced, this indicates an intermittent drive
failure. This message also appears once
immediately following drive replacement
before data is restored from backup.
If this message appears immediately
following a ROM installation, the ROM is
defective or not installed properly. Check
that the controller is firmly inserted in its
slot. Check for improper cabling or SCSI ID
conflicts. Try upgrading the System ROMs.
Otherwise, replace the Smart Array 221
Controller.
Check for loose cables. Replace defective
drive x and/or cable(s).
(1) Run the Compaq Array Configuration
Utility.
(2) Turn off system and check SCSI cable
connections to make sure drives are
attached properly.
(3) Run Drive Array Advanced Diagnostics if
previous positions are unknown. Then turn
system power OFF and move drives to their
original positions.
(4) To avoid data loss, turn system power
OFF and reattach drives to the original
controller.
(5) To avoid data loss, reattach drives to the
original controller or upgrade the controller
firmware to the version on the original
controller using Option ROMPaq.
Select F1 key to resume.
