Verify Hard Disk Drive Modules - HP D5970A - NetServer - LCII Manual

Chapter 3

Verify Hard Disk Drive Modules

As the HP NetServer restarts, watch the display monitor to determine whether all
the drives you installed have been detected.
NOTE
Any SCSI devices controlled by the integrated HP NetRAID
controller will NOT be displayed during the boot process.
Any SCSI devices controlled by a SCSI controller without a
boot order number will NOT be displayed during the boot
process.
If no drives in the secondary hot-swap mass storage cage are detected, refer to
Chapter 2 as you do the following:
1. Turn off power to the NetServer, and unplug the AC power cord(s).
2. Remove Cover 1.
3. Verify that the power harness is connected correctly to the cage.
4. Verify that the SCSI cable is connected correctly to the cage.
5. Remove the Fan 1 Assembly to verify that the SCSI cable is connected
correctly to the SCSI B connector on the I/O board.
6. Replace the Fan 1 Assembly and plug in the Fan 1 cable.
7. Replace Cover 1.
8. Reconnect the AC power cord(s), and restart the NetServer.
9. Watch the display monitor for the boot listing of SCSI devices to determine
whether all the drives you installed have been detected.
If one drive was not detected, refer to the HP NetServer Ultra2 SCSI Hot-swap
Hard Disk Drive and Tray User Guide as you do the following:
1. Determine which drive was not detected. Do this by comparing the SCSI
addresses (IDs) of the detected drives with the SCSI addresses in "About
SCSI Addresses in Secondary Cage" in Chapter 2 of this guide. (This drive
and its module are referred to as "suspect" in the actions below.)
2. Remove the suspect module, and then reinstall it.
3. Restart the NetServer, and see whether the suspect drive is detected.
If the suspect drive is detected, the problem is solved.
