Troubleshooting RCU path status problems

Path Status

Description

Corrective Action

Initialization Failed

The link initialization procedure

to the RCU failed.

Verify that you entered the correct RCU S/N and SSID

and path parameters (Fibre: MCU port, RCU port, CU

number and Controller ID. Serial: port, link address

and logical address).
For serial, verify that the correct MCU port is

configured as an RCP and that the correct RCU port is

configured as an LCP.
For Fibre Channel interface, verify that the Fibre

Channel topology settings of the MCU and RCU ports

are correct.

Communication Time

Out

Communication between the

MCU and RCU timed out.

Verify that the RCU is powered on and fully functional

(NVS and cache ON).
Verify that the remote copy connection hardware is

properly configured and functional, including cables,

connectors, ESCDs, repeaters, extender devices,

communication lines, and all other devices connected

to the extenders.
Delete the failed path. You may need to change the

minimum paths setting or delete the RCU to delete the

path. Then add the path/RCU using Add Path or Add

RCU.

Resource Shortage

(MCU/RCU)

The MCU/RCU rejected the

establish logical path link control

function because all logical path

resources in the MCU/RCU are

being used for other connections.

Delete the failed path, and also delete all paths and

RCUs not currently in use. The MCU can be

connected to up to four RCUs with up to eight paths

(four for serial 3990) to each RCU.
Verify all MCU and RCU ports are properly

configured:

Serial – LCPs for hosts and MCUs, RCPs for RCUs.

Fibre – ordinary target ports or RCU target ports

for hosts, RCU target ports for MCUs, initiator

ports for RCUs.

If necessary, connect to the RCU to delete

paths/RCUs and reconfigure ports, then reconnect to

the MCU.
Add the path/RCU again using Add Path or Add

RCU.

Serial Number

Mismatch

The RCU’s S/N does not match

the specified S/N.

Verify that you entered the correct RCU S/N and SSID

and path parameters (Fibre: MCU port, RCU port, CU

number and Controller ID. Serial: port, link address

and logical address).
Delete the failed path. You may need to change the

minimum paths setting or delete the RCU to delete the

path. Then add the path/RCU using Add Path or Add

RCU.
For Fibre Channel interface, verify that you entered

the correct Controller ID and that the Fibre Channel

topology settings of the MCU and RCU ports are

correct.
