Troubles
hooting
A Link Down warning state can be reported by the CVGUI if either of the
following two failures occur:
■
If a host Fibre Channel loop fails due to the failure of a host HBA, a faulty
or disconnected fiber cable, a faulty GBIC (VA 7100 only), or the failure of
a data flow component on an array controller.
■
If an array Fibre Channel loop fails due to a port failure on a disk drive,
faulty loop circuitry on the midplane, or the failure of a data flow
component on an array controller. If a port failure occurs, a port bypass
circuit will bypass that part of the loop and the first array controller will re-
route the data through the second array controller, via the internal N-way
bus, to the other Fibre Channel loop.
Array Power-On Sequence
Table 5 shows the power-on sequence for the array. This sequence can be
viewed via the Virtual Front Panel (VFP) when the array is powered on.
