3ware Serial ATA RAID Controller User Guide for the Power Mac G5

000E Initialize failed

The 3ware RAID controller was unable to complete the initialization. This
error can be caused by unrecoverable drive errors.

If this unit was a redundant unit, and the 'initialize failed' happened because of
a problem on a particular disk drive, then the unit will be degraded on that
disk drive's port.

000F SMART threshold exceeded

The 3ware RAID controller supports SMART Monitoring, whereby the
individual drives automatically monitor certain parametric information such
as error rates and retry counts. By monitoring this data, SMART may be able
to predict a drive failure before it happens, allowing you to schedule service
of the unit before it becomes degraded. The SMART status of each drive
attached to the 3ware RAID controller is monitored daily. If a failure of any
drive is determined to be likely, you are notified by this message.

3ware recommends that you replace any drive that has the SMART threshold
exceeded.

If the drive is part of a redundant unit, then you can 'Remove' the drive with
3DM2 to degrade the unit. Replace the drive and start a rebuild. For
information on rebuilds, see “Rebuilding Units” on page 73.

If the drive is not part of a redundant unit, then you will need to backup your
data before replacing the drive.

0019 Drive removed

This message is posted whenever a drive is removed from the controller while
the controller is powered on.

If you use 3DM2 to ‘Remove’ a drive from a redundant unit, you can then
replace that drive and start a rebuild without needing to backup your data.

If the drive is not part of a redundant unit, then before removing it, you will
need to backup your data.

For information on rebuilding degraded units, see “Rebuilding Units” on
page 73
.

001A Drive inserted

This message is posted whenever a drive is connected to the controller while
the controller is powered on.
