Troubleshooting and Problem Solving Overview The Storage System SSR212MA enclosure includes an enclosure services processor and associated monitoring and control logic to enable it to diagnose problems within the enclosure’s power, cooling and drive systems. The sensors for power and cooling conditions are housed within the power supply and cooling modules.
Troubleshooting The following sections describe common problems, with possible solutions, which can ® occur with your Storage System SSR212MA. Refer to the Intel Server Board SE7520JR2 User Guide for additional troubleshooting information on the server board. For details on how to remove and replace a module, see Chapter 2, “Hardware...
Thermal Control The Storage System SSR212MA enclosure uses extensive thermal monitoring and takes a number of actions to ensure component temperatures are kept low and also to minimize acoustic noise. Airflow is from front to rear of the enclosure.
5. If possible shutdown the enclosure and investigate the problem before continuing. Thermal Shutdown Important: An enclosure will shut down when a critical temperature threshold is exceeded in order to prevent permanent damage to the disk drives. Intel® Storage System SSR212MA User Guide...
Ensure that you have obtained a replacement module of the same type before removing any faulty module. Warning: If the Storage System SSR212MA sub-system is powered up and you remove any module, replace it immediately. If the subsystem is used with modules or module blanks missing for more than a few minutes, the storage system can overheat, causing power failure and data loss.
