Resolving an NVMe Flash adapter problem
Learn about the possible problems and service actions that you can perform to resolve a Non-Volatile
Memory Express (NVMe) Flash adapter problem.
If you suspect a problem with a PCIe3 1.92 TB CAPI NVMe Flash accelerator adapter (FC EJ1K; CCIN
58CD), see PCIe3 1.92 TB CAPI NVMe Flash Accelerator Adapter (FC EJ1K; CCIN 58CD).
If you suspect a problem with an NVMe Flash adapter, use the following table to determine the service
action to perform.
Note:
To determine the location of the NVMe Flash adapter, see “Identifying the location of the NVMe
Table 6. NVMe Flash adapter problems and service actions
Problem
Service action
System is unable to
find the NVMe Flash
adapter
1.
If the NVMe Flash adapter has an amber LED that is flashing or is on solid, replace the
adapter. Go to “8335-GCA and 8335-GTA locations” on page 111 to identify the physical
location and removal and replacement procedure.
Important:
Before you remove an NVMe Flash adapter, ensure that you back up all data
on the adapter or the array that contains the adapter. After you replace the adapter,
restore the data.
2.
If the system was recently installed, moved, serviced, or upgraded, verify that the NVMe
Flash adapter is seated and installed properly.
3.
Verify that the NVMe Flash adapter is compatible with the system.
4.
Verify that the most recent firmware is installed on the system. Otherwise, install the
most recent firmware if it is not already installed.
5.
Replace the NVMe Flash adapter. Go to “8335-GCA and 8335-GTA locations” on page 111
to identify the physical location and removal and replacement procedure.
Important:
Before you remove an NVMe Flash adapter, ensure that you back up all data
on the adapter or the array that contains the adapter. After you replace the adapter,
