  • Page 23: Connecting Sas Cables And Power Cords

    Connecting SAS cables and power cords After installing the enclosure in a rack, connect the SAS cables and power cords. Cabling best practices • Use the shortest possible cable between devices. Shorter cables are easier to manage and route along the back of the rack. In addition, shorter cables reduce the possibility of signal degradation that might occur over longer distances.

  • Page 24: Connecting Sas Cables To Additional Disk Enclosures

    Connecting SAS cables to additional disk enclosures To connect an additional disk enclosure to a disk enclosure that is already connected to the server or controller enclosure, use a supported SAS cable. NOTE: The left connector on the I/O module is for input from the server or controller enclosure. The right connector on the I/O module is for output to an additional enclosure.
  • Page 25 To protect the system from power-failure-related downtime, each disk enclosure ships standard with a redundant power supply. Depending how you connect the power supplies to the power source, you can eliminate downtime caused by power-related failures.

This ensures that servers, during the discovery process, identify the enclosures and installed disk drives as operational devices.

  • Page 32: Powering Off Disk Enclosures

    Powering off disk enclosures IMPORTANT: Always power off disk enclosures after controller enclosures and servers. IMPORTANT: When installing a hot-pluggable component, such as a disk drive, it is not necessary to power down the enclosure. To power off a disk enclosure: Power off any attached servers.

  • Page 33: Troubleshooting

    6 Troubleshooting When the enclosure does not start If the enclosure does not power up: Verify that the server, monitor, and enclosure are plugged in. Verify that the server and monitor are working. Verify that the power source is working: Ensure that the Power On/Standby button was pressed firmly and held for approximately three seconds.

    • CPQONLIN identifies failed drives in a NetWare environment. For additional information about diagnosing disk drive problems, see the HP ProLiant Servers Troubleshooting Guide. CAUTION: Sometimes, a drive that has previously failed may seem to be operational after the system is power-cycled or, for a hot-pluggable drive, after the drive has been removed and reinserted.

  • Page 36: Factors To Consider Before Replacing Disk Drives

    Power up the enclosure (see Powering on disk enclosures). NOTE: In some cases, a marginal drive is operational long enough to allow backups of important files. Make copies of important data, if possible. Replace any failed drives. Read Factors to consider before replacing hard drives before replacing the failed disk drives.

    or rebuild. If fault tolerance is compromised, this data cannot be reconstructed and is likely to be permanently lost. If another drive in the array fails while fault tolerance is unavailable during rebuild, a fatal system error may occur, and all data on the array is then lost. In exceptional cases, however, failure of another drive need not lead to a fatal system error.

  • Page 38: Failed Drives Or Interim Recovery Mode

    Failed drives or interim recovery mode If a drive fails and hardware fault tolerance is enabled, operation continues. Do the following: Replace the drive as soon as possible. Select a logical drive. Press the F3 key to monitor to the status of drive recovery. Drive status messages include: •...
  • Page 39 NOTE: NetWare cannot detect a single physical drive failure when using hardware-based fault tolerance. NetWare determines that the data is still valid and accessible during the rebuilding process. However, the driver knows that a physical drive has failed. A message is printed on the console notifying the user that a physical drive is in a degraded state.
