IOPn.MtcScsiP status: DISKn has established an advertised sector count of SECTOR_COUNT sectors.
Variables
n – the disk number; for example, DISK0, DISK1, DISK2
SECTOR_COUNT – the count of sectors in decimal
Severity
Informational
Description
When two disks that are not the same size are initially joined, the size of the smaller disk
dictates the advertised size of the larger disk. This message reports on the agreed upon
advertised disk size.
Action
No action is required.
IOPn.MtcScsiP status: DISKn has had SCSI disconnects disabled. This disk type may have exhibited problems with
SCSI disconnects. This feature is disabled to prevent corruption problems.
Variables
n – the disk number; for example, DISK0, DISK1, DISK2
Severity
Warning
Description
Some disk controllers may exhibit problems when certain SCSI features are used. HP
NetServer AA software attempts to disable certain SCSI features for disk controllers that are
suspected of not handling them properly. The SCSI feature "disconnects" was disabled for this
controller. Use of SCSI "disconnects" permits the disk controller to execute slower SCSI
operations offline. Executing slower commands offline allows the SCSI bus to be used for
other purposes, such as servicing other disk controllers, for example.
Action
No action is required.
IOPn.MtcScsiP status: DISKn has had SCSI synchronous transfers disabled. This disk type may have exhibited
problems with SCSI synchronous transfers. This feature is disabled to prevent corruption problems.
Variables
n – the disk number; for example, DISK0, DISK1, DISK2
Severity
Warning
Description
Some disk controllers may exhibit problems when certain SCSI features are used. HP
NetServer AA software attempts to disable certain SCSI features for disk controllers that are
suspected of not handling them properly. The SCSI feature "synchronous transfers" was
disabled for this controller. Use of "synchronous transfers" permits the disk controller to
transfer data more quickly by reducing the effects of cable propagation delay.
Action
No action is required.
