Table 15 Troubleshooting for XP Thin Provisioning (continued)

Causes and Solutions

Problems

Causes:

See

“Troubleshooting when using XP RAID Manager” (page 84)

to identify the cause.

Solutions:

After selecting the Refresh or Refresh All command from the
File menu at the top left of the Remote Web Console window,
make sure that the processing for increasing V-VOL capacity
meets conditions described in

“Increasing V-VOL Capacity”

(page 67)

.

Retry the operation in 10 minutes.

Ask HP technical support to solve the problem.

V-VOL capacity cannot be increased.

Cause:

Zero data in the V-VOL cannot be discarded from Remote
Web Console because the V-VOL does not meet the conditions
described in

“Releasing Pages in a V-VOL” (page 71)

.

Solution:

Make sure that the V-VOL meets the conditions described in

“Releasing Pages in a V-VOL” (page 71)

.

Cannot discard zero data in a V-VOL.

Cause:

Pages of the V-VOL are not released because the process of
discarding zero data was interrupted. For details, see

“Releasing Pages in a V-VOL” (page 71)

.

Solution:

Make sure that the V-VOL meets the conditions described in
Releasing Pages in a V-VOL and perform the solution.

The V-VOL cannot not be released though
zero data in the V-VOL is discarded.

Cause:

The pool is full.

The pool-VOL is blocked.

The pool-VOL of the external volume is blocked.

Solutions:

Add pool-VOLs to the pool to increase the free space in the
pool. For more information, see

“ Creating a Pool” (page 58)

.

To restore the pool-VOL, contact the Hitachi Data Systems
Technical Support Center.

If the pool-VOL is an external volume, check the condition of
the external storage system, for instance the path blockade.

After performing the above-mentioned solutions, release the
Protection attribute of the V-VOLs using the Data Retention
window of Remote Web Console (if the Data Retention Utility
is installed).

For information about operating procedures, see the HP
StorageWorks XP24000/XP20000 Data Retention Utility User
Guide
.

Cannot release the Protection attribute of
the V-VOLs.
