hp va 7100

saj_2 — Thu, 23 Feb 2006 03:27:03 GMT

I have a HP va 7100 machine .

When i wanted to use it , it didnt function properly so i connected it to a console through a serial cable .

and in the command prompt it read "no map " ..

what do i do next ?? what does it mean??

Hi,
no map means that the array is not configured.

Follow the flow chart in the link below

hi,

you can dowload the softwares here

http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/DriverDownload.jsp?〈=en&cc=us&prodNameId=30591&taskId=135&prodTypeId=12169&prodSeriesId=64112〈=en&cc=us

A failed controller means a defective controller. If you have a hw contract then HP must replace this controller

Re: hp va 7100

Arend Lensen — Wed, 01 Mar 2006 01:58:23 GMT

A failed controller could be caused by a faulty or completely depleted battery.
Can you post the output of the dsp -c -s command?

This is interesting:

"Code Mismatch".

Is there data on the array?
If not can you pull the handle for one controller (don't pull the controller out, just release the handle) and see if the other boots up ok.
Then shut it down and see if the other controller boots. For both output capture the dsp -c -f -d -e -L -s (one command)

I have never seen this before.
Did you add a second controller while the array was NOT running??

To try to fix it to the following:
connect your pc to C2 and boot from this single controller (handle C1 = pulled).

When its up and running, insert the C1 controller and watch if cloning starts.
Give it a couple of minutes.

Regards,
Arend

tanks Arend , these machines were lying idol for a long time before i used thme for testing purpose .

I inserted the other controller when the first one was running and the command prompt reads "coCreating Clone Image".

Thanks a lot for the help .
Arend.. feels nice that u helped .

thanks again

Re: hp va 7100

saj_2 — Wed, 01 Mar 2006 12:33:52 GMT

hi there ..

I was trying to troubleshoot another VA, this time I connected one controller at a time .

on one of the controllers i got the following message

"tAbtrm:ab. ffff.10 "

can anyone throw some light as to why n how this happens ??

Re: hp va 7100

Srinivasa_6 — Thu, 02 Mar 2006 18:43:16 GMT

ab.ffff.xx abterms usually indicate a failed controller hardware. Try power cycling the controllers once. If you run into the same termination again, its time to replace the controller hardware.

Re: hp va 7100

saj_2 — Thu, 02 Mar 2006 23:55:10 GMT

hi there ,
thanks for the many replies .

I was working on another VA and i had some trouble in getting the machine work .

So i connected the serial cable and issued the command dsp -s

it should RAM unmirrored
can any of you throw some light on it .
