Problem recovery
During the upgrade, you might encounter the following problems. Perform the
indicated actions to resolve them.
Problems Actions
During the DS4000 controller firmware or
NVSRAM download process, you see an
error window stating that the download may
be completed but the Storage Manager client
was not able to communicate with the
controller to verify the download.
Follow the error recovery procedure that is
shown in the Error window.
If the problem persists, contact IBM support.
During the EXP100 csb or ESM firmware
download, you see an error window stating
that the download to an expansion enclosure
failed. This expansion enclosure is marked
with the word Failed in its status field.
If there are other expansion enclosures that
were in the pending state to receive the new
ESM firmware, those expansion enclosures
will have the word Cancelled in their status
fields.
Restart the ESM firmware download to the
expansion enclosure(s) that have the
Cancelled status. Then, use the Recovery
Guru icon in the Subsystem Management
window to make sure that there is not any
ESM Loss of Path Redundancy error.
Follow the listed recovery procedure in the
window to fix the problems and retry the
download to the expansion enclosure(s) that
had the status of Failed.
If the problem persists, contact IBM support.
Drive(s) are marked Failed during the
firmware download, causing the array to be
placed in Degraded state.
After all of the firmware downloads have
completed, right-click the failed drive and
select Reconstruct .
If the drive reconstructs and becomes
optimal, then the drive is OK. If the drive fails
during the reconstruction, then it is bad. In
that case, replace the drive.
