B EMU-generated con d ition repor ts
This section provides a description of the EMU generated condition reports that contain the following
information:
• Element type (et), a hexadecimal number in the range 01 through FF.
• Element number (en), a decimal number in the range 00 through 99 that defines a specific
problem.
• Error code (ec), a decimal number in the range 00 through 99.
• The recommended corrective action.
NOTE:
The conventions used to differentiate between the elements of the condition report are:
• Element t ype—period after each character
• Element number—per iod after the second c haracter
• Error code—no periods
The EMU can send error messages to the controller for transmission to HP Command View EVA. The
messages displayed are specific to HP Command View EVA and are not within the scope of this
publication.
The I/O modules have the built-in intelligence to:
• Observe fibre channel events
• Bypass drive ports based on events
• Perform drive port testing a nd monitoring to prevent poor-performing drives from participating
in the loop
• Communicate fibre channel events to the controllers
This appendix explains the condition report format, correcting problems, and how to identify element
types. The error cod es are arranged in element t ype sequence (that is, 0.1., 0.2., 0.3., etc.).
Condition report format
When the EMU a lphanumeric display is Er, three additional displays identify the possible cause of the
problem: the element type, the specificelement,andtheerrorcode,whichdefines the possible cause
of the problem.
• The first-level display identifies the type of element affected with two alphanumeric characters
separated by periods such as 0.1., 0.2., 1.3., F.F., and so forth. A disk drive problem would
display an element type number of 0.1.
• The second-level display identifies the element affected with a two-digit, decimal number followed
by a period. For example, when a bay 6 drive error occurs, the elem ent number display is 06.; a
display of 14 . indicates a bay 14 p ro b le m.
• The third-level display identifies a specific problem, the error code with a two-digit, decimal
number. For example, should the problem be either the installation of an incorrectly con figured
drive or one that cannot operate at the loop link rate, the display is 01.
