Identifying a Failed Array Module Controller
The DXi6900-S contains one or two Array modules (RBODs). Each Array module contains two controllers
(A and B).
To identify the failed Array module controller:
1. Access the remote management console (see
Accessing Remote Management on page 21
).
2. Navigate to the
Status > Hardware > Details > Storage Arrays
page.
3. Note the status of each controller (A and B) in each Array module (see
).
Note: Qarray1
corresponds to RBOD 1, and
Qarray2
corresponds to RBOD 2.
