Try upgrading your drivers using the latest HP Smart Start or download the appropriate Proliant Support Pack.

Looks to be an issue with the SCSI drivers..

Hi,

The message that is recorded in the event log has no effect on the normal operation of the server and may be safely ignored.

You can update the controller firmware for this meeasge to stop this message.
