User's Guide and Maintenance Information
Is any disk drive failing?
NO
A disk drive that is listed as rejected is not necessarily failing. For
example, the array might have rejected the disk drive because a power
problem, or an SSA link problem, caused that drive to become temporarily
unavailable. Under such conditions, the disk drive can be reused.
If you think that a disk drive has been rejected because it is failing, check
the error log history for that disk drive. For example, if you suspect
pdisk3, type on the command line:
This command causes the error log for pdisk3 to be analyzed for the
previous five days. If a problem is detected, an SRN is generated.
Go to step 28.
