VA 7400 - Not Enough Drives
I have an HP Surestore Virtual Array VA 7400 I am attempting to configure using the Virtual Front Panel commands. When I power on the array, it is constantly in a Warning State but the individual components report Good/Ready. I am able to set the controller port behavior, the port data rate, port topology, loop ID, and RAID level. However, when I format the array using the fmt command, I receive a Not Enough Drives prompt. Please see below for the sytax used.
Warning State > fmt
Format Array. Clear ALL data? (yes/no):yes
Formatting Subsystem...
Not Enough Drives > 38370HP22P0610051658: Initializing:
02 04 08 0A 0C 0E 12 16 18 1A 1C 1D 1E 20 22 24 26
Warning State >
If anyone could help me clear the Warning State and format the array successfully, I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you!
Cheers!
Dave
