8 Troubleshooting, servicing, and
maintenance

Troubleshooting the storage system

Use the references and general guidelines in this section to troubleshoot your HP StorageWorks
All-in-One Storage System.

Operating system problems and resolutions

Use the suggestions below to help resolve operating system issues.

Table 44 Operating system problems

Action

Problem

Scan for viruses with an updated virus scan utility.

Operating system locks up

General protection fault (GPF) occurs. This can occur
when the Microsoft operating system terminates
suddenly with an error, including, but not limited to:

•

Remove any newly installed software or hardware
to verify that they are not the cause.

•

Boot the server in Safe Mode or the last known
good configuration.

•

Miscalculating the amount of RAM needed for an
allocation

If neither of these actions resolves the problem, contact
an authorized service provider. For more information

•

Transferring execution to a segment that is not
executable

about debugging tools or specific GPF messages, see
the Microsoft web site: 

http://www.microsoft.com/

whdc/devtools/debugging/default.mspx

.

•

Writing to a read-only or a code segment

•

Loading a bad value into a segment register

•

Using a null pointer

A GPF is immediately identifiable by a blue screen
with white text, and the text may contain information
that identifies the problem.

Follow the information provided in the error log, and
then see the operating system documentation.

Errors are displayed in the error log

Operating system updates

Use care when applying operating system updates (service packs, hotfixes, and patches). Before
updating the operating system, read the release notes for each update. If you do not require specific
fixes from the update, HP recommends that you do not apply the updates.

If you decide to apply an operating system update:

1.

Perform a full system backup.

2.

Apply the operating system update using the instructions provided.
