Corrective action
Table 8 Possible causes and corrective actions when no storage system found
Corrective Action
Possible Cause
Check the connection configuration between the management server and
the controller pair. The management server must have a communication
path to both controllers in case one controller loses communications with
the server.
The management server may not be able to
communicate with either controller.
Enter the correct password through HP Command View EVA or disable
the password on the controller.
When HP Command View EVA is first starting
up, a password may be enabled on the con-
trollers, but a password has not been entered
in HP Command View EVA.
Verify that switches are zoned correctly.
The switches may not be correctly zoned,
making a storage system invisible to HP
Command View EVA.
1.
Verify that the controllers are up and functioning properly.
2.
Check the cable connections between the management server and
the switch.
3.
Verify that switch zoning is correct.
