Recognizing hard drive failure

In an HP storage enclosure, a steadily glowing Fault LED indicates that the drive has failed.
Other indications of failed hard drives:

The amber LED on the front of a storage system is lit if drives fail. (However, this LED also illuminates

when other problems occur, such as when a system fan fails, a redundant power supply fails, or the

system overheats.)

ACU represents failed drives with a distinctive icon.

HP SIM can detect failed drives remotely across a network. (For more information about HP SIM,

refer to the documentation on the Management CD.)

ADU lists all failed drives.

CPQONLIN identifies failed drives in a NetWare environment.
