Shalom,

Still looks like a disk problem from here.

Try:
cstm mstm xstm
Your choice

exercise the disk. If it comes up red, ignite backup and replace the disk.

If its a SAN boot, check the fiber media, hba card and switch configuration.

Hi steven,

I would use stm or others but boot is blocked !
What is MEM_SBE_CORR_ERR ?
i have changed primary disk with secondary, same result
Boot is not on the SAn,i have checked and modified fc driver drvcfg -v in efi menu too stop search bootable disk when initialise FC

Hi,

I would suggest you to involve HP to decode the bootup error codes.
