Problem
: The front panel LCD displays alternating “Zz” characters.
Cause
: These characters are displayed when the cache is full with write request's
data that have not been processed. It will halt requests from the host to flush the data in
the cache.
Fix
: None needed.
Problem
: The front panel LCD displays alternating “Ww” characters.
Cause
: These characters are displayed to indicate the write requests in the cache are
being processed. When these characters are displayed, the
Condre RAID
will halt
requests from the host (see above).
Fix
: Make sure the “WRITE BUFFER” option of the “RAID Params” menu is enabled.
In addition, more cache memory may be required. By increasing the cache memory
the write buffer space increases and will be able to handle the higher write requests.
Problem
: Newly installed memory fails during Self-Test or is not detected.
Possible Cause
: Memory SO-DIMM module may not be properly seated or may not be
supported by the particular
Condre RAID
model.

Fix
: Re-sit the memory module in to the socket and retry. If it continues to fail try
moving it to the other memory socket. Make sure the correct memory type is being
installed. The
Condre RAID
supports 144-pin SO-DIMM SDRAM.
