If LED patterns are not as expected:
Check cable connections between the devices.
Check the availability of your power source.
Review the installation procedures.
Remove and reinsert the module.

Verify the operating status of the Fibre Channel switches and adapters

To verify that your switches are operating properly, view the switch LEDs and compare them with
the patterns described in the documentation for these devices. If the LEDs indicate a fault, see the
documentation that came with the switch for help.
Optional Step: If you will be using Fibre Channel to attach the array to your existing servers, you
must install Fibre Channel adapters in those servers and test the Fibre Channel adapters prior to
installing HP P6000 Command View.
Ensure that you have the correct quantity and length of Fibre Channel cables available to attach
your servers to the array.

Installing Fibre Channel drivers

If you are using Windows, use the ProLiant Service Pack (PSP) to install the applicable Fibre Channel
drivers. Older PSPs will not have current drivers, so ensure your driver version are current.
For other operating systems, load the drivers as directed in "Configuring application servers" in
the HP P6300/P6500 Enterprise Virtual Array User Guide.
