Why is the HP P2000 G3 power supply Input Power Source LED off?
If the power supply's Input Power Source LED is off, it indicates that the power supply is not receiving adequate power. First, check that the power cord is properly connected and verify the power source. Also, ensure that the power supply FRU is firmly locked into position. You may also want to check the event log for specific details, and isolate the fault.
What to do if the HP P2000 G3 Storage front panel Fault LED is amber?
If the front panel Fault LED is amber, a fault condition exists. Check the LEDs on the back of the controller to narrow the fault to a FRU or connection issue. If installing an I/O module FRU, the module might have failed its self-test. Check the event log for specific fault information, isolate the fault, and if necessary, try removing and reinstalling the new I/O module, checking the event log for errors.
Why is the HP P2000 G3 controller back panel OK LED off?
If the controller back panel OK LED is off, it means the controller module is not powered on or has failed. Ensure the controller module is fully inserted and latched in place and that the enclosure is powered on. Also, check the event log for specific information regarding the failure.
What does it mean if the HP P2000 G3 Storage connected host port's Host Link Status LED is off?
If a connected host port’s Host Link Status LED is off, the link is down. Check cable connections and reseat if necessary, inspect cables for damage, and swap cables to check for defects. Verify that any switch is operating properly and test with another port if possible. Ensure the HBA is fully seated and the PCI slot is powered on. Review event logs in SMU for fault indicators.
Why is the HP Storage power supply Voltage/Fan Fault/Service Required LED amber?
If the power supply’s Voltage/Fan Fault/Service Required LED is amber, the power supply unit or a fan is operating at an unacceptable voltage/RPM level, or has failed. When isolating faults, remember that the fans in both modules receive power through a common bus on the midplane, so if a power supply unit fails, the fans continue to operate normally. Check that the power supply FRU is firmly locked into position, that the power cable is connected to a power source and that the power cable is connected to the power supply module.
What does it mean if the HP P2000 G3 controller back panel Fault/Service Required LED is amber?
If the controller back panel Fault/Service Required LED is amber, one of the following errors has occurred: a hardware-controlled power-up error, a cache flush error, or a cache self-refresh error. Try restarting the controller from the other controller using SMU or the CLI, or remove and reinsert the controller.
What does it mean if the HP P2000 G3 Storage connected port's Expansion Port Status LED is off?
If a connected port’s Expansion Port Status LED is off, the link is down. Check cable connections and reseat if necessary, inspect the cable for damage, and swap cables to determine if the fault is due to a defective cable. Review the event logs in SMU for indicators of a specific fault in a host data path component.
Why are both disk drive module LEDs off on my HP P2000 G3?
If both disk drive module LEDs are off (Online/Activity and Fault/UID), it indicates there is no power, the disk is offline, or the disk is not configured. Check that the disk drive is fully inserted and latched in place, and that the enclosure is powered on.
Why is the HP P2000 G3 Storage disk drive module Fault/UID LED blinking amber?
If the disk drive module Fault/UID LED is blinking amber, the disk drive is offline, and a predictive failure alert may have been received, or the disk drive is active, but a predictive failure alert may have been received for this device. Check the event log for specific information regarding the fault, and isolate the fault.
What to do if the HP P2000 G3 enclosure does not initialize?
If the enclosure does not initialize, perform a rescan. If that doesn't work, power cycle the system. Ensure the power cord is properly connected and check the power source. Also, check the event log for errors.
