HE error: Error synchronizing with SANtricity OS Software
The seven-segment display on the compute controller shows an HE error code if the StorageGRID
Appliance Installer cannot synchronize with SANtricity OS Software.
About this task
If an HE error code is displayed, perform this corrective action.
Steps
1. Check the two interconnect cables between the two controllers, and confirm that the cables and
SFP+ transceivers are securely connected.
2. As required, replace one or both of the cables or SFP+ transceivers, and try again.
3. If this does not resolve the issue, contact technical support.
Troubleshooting connection issues
If you encounter connection issues during the StorageGRID appliance installation, you should
perform the corrective action steps listed.
Unable to connect to the appliance
If you cannot connect to the appliance, there might be a network issue, or the hardware installation
might not have been completed successfully.
Steps
1. If you are unable to connect to SANtricity System Manager:
a. Try to ping the appliance using the IP address for the E2800 controller on the management
network for SANtricity System Manager:
ping E2800_Controller_IP
b. If you receive no response from the ping, confirm you are using the correct IP address.
Use the IP address for management port 1 on the E2800 controller.
c. If the IP address is correct, check appliance cabling and the network setup.
If that does not resolve the issue, contact technical support.
d. If the ping was successful, open a web browser.
e. Enter the URL for SANtricity System Manager:
https://E2800_Controller_IP
The log in page for SANtricity System Manager appears.
2. If you are unable to connect to the E5700SG controller:
a. Try to ping the appliance using the IP address for the E5700SG controller :

b. If you receive no response from the ping, confirm you are using the correct IP address.
You can use the IP address of the appliance on the Grid Network, the Admin Network, or
the Client Network.
