Verifying component failure
Before replacing a disk, use the following methods to verify component failure:
CAUTION:
If HP Command View EVA does not present a status consistent with the disk status indicators, or if HP
Command View EVA or your system monitoring tool indicates multiple hardware failures, contact HP
support for assistance
•
Analyze any failure messages received. Error messages identify each disk by its rack, enclosure,
bay, and UUID (World Wide Name). Record this information to assist you in identifying the
correct disk before replacing it.
The following is a sample of the disk identification information:
FRU List:

Storage System World Wide ID: 5000-1FE1-0015-42A0
Disk Drive UUID:
2000-0000-871D-FE60
Drive Location ---
Enclosure ID:

Bay ID:

NOTE:
The Disk Drive UUID corresponds to the disk Node World Wide Name displayed in HP Command
View EVA.
•
Check the disk status indicators (
). If a hard failure has occurred, the fault indicator
should be On.
•
