Hi Shiv,
Please check the syslog for same kind of error. Please do the armlog & logprn command of commandview SDM ( if installed) to see the logs from your attached autoraid storage box. There is some major warning from your autoraid box ( like disk failure or link redundancy lost) . Which is autoraid box you have?? Please post the logs..

EMS offer a solution or direct you to a webpage that is related to that error.There is a column named "Recommended Action" at the end of each event.Take a look at it.

Hi Shiv, Do you have any storage arrays connected to your server ? (external) Please check your /var/adm/syslog/syslog.log and dmesg for any similar errors and let us know ..

Hi Shiv,

Please check /var/opt/resmon/log/event.log file for more detail about the error.

Also run the command given in syslog to know the exact error about the Autoraid.

Hi Shiv,

The message indicates that some sort of error has been generated in your Autoraid array connected to your server. Further error can be seen in the event.log indicated above or by querying Auto-Raid through various supported commands.

HTH,

Hi Shiv,
If your storage box is a legacy autoraid, you can use default hp ux array commands like ARMServer(1M), arraycfg(1M), arraydsp(1M), arrayfmt(1M), arraymgr(1M),arrayrbld(1M), arrayrecover(1M), download(1M),rivetest(1M),dteststat(1M), logprint(1M).

check the man pages for the options.. By giving appropriate option, you will get the log for a given period & from the time of error in syslog, you will come to know , actually what happened.
