General Troubleshooting

For troubleshooting information on the storage system, see the HP XP24000/XP20000 Disk Array
Owner Guide

The user is responsible for the operation and normal maintenance of the Remote Web Console
computer. Here are some guidelines for troubleshooting the Remote Web Console computer:

Check the cabling and the LAN. Verify that both the computer and LAN cabling are firmly
attached, and that the LAN is operating properly.

Reboot the computer. Close any programs that are not responding. If necessary, reboot the
Remote Web Console computer and restart the Remote Web Console Java application program.

Check for any general error conditions.

Table 36 (page 131)

describes some general error

conditions, along with the recommended resolution for each item. If you are still unable to
resolve an error condition, call HP technical support for assistance (see

“Calling HP Technical

Support” (page 136)

for contact information).

Check the status lamp on the Remote Web Console main window. If the color of the lamp
becomes yellow ( ) or red ( ), confirm the severity level of the disk controller and disk array
unit on the Alerts window (see

“Alerts Window” (page 66)

). If you are unable to resolve an

error condition, contact HP technical support.

Download the Remote Web Console trace files using the FD Dump Tool. If you are unable to
resolve an error condition, first copy the Remote Web Console configuration information onto
floppy disks using the FD Dump Tool (see

“Downloading Trace Files Using the FD Dump Tool”

(page 109)

). Contact HP technical support (see

“Calling HP Technical Support” (page 136)

and give the information on the floppy disks to the HP service personnel.
