      Thomas SmithAug 25, 2025
      If the HP Storage Remote Web Console hangs or Cnt Ac-J Z operations malfunction, first ensure the issue isn't with your computer, Ethernet hardware, or software by restarting the computer. Verify that all Cnt Ac-J Z requirements are met, and that the primary/secondary systems and remote copy connections are powered on with operational NVS and cache. Double-check all entered values and parameters for accuracy in the Remote Web Console. Avoid using Performance Monitor during these operations.

      Casey RosalesSep 1, 2025
      If FCU reports errors when accessing an FCU parameter definition file on Windows systems, remove all space lines from the FCU parameter definition files. FCU versions 01-01-36 and later do not support space lines, while FCU versions 01-01-24 and earlier supported space lines when run without the GUI.

    How to recover from HP StorageWorks P9000 Storage Initial Copy Failed error?
    • A
      angela63Aug 28, 2025
      If the primary HP Storage system suspended a pair during the initial copy operation, indicating the data on the S-VOL isn't identical to the P-VOL (possibly due to an invalid track format), release the pair from the primary storage system. Clear all error conditions at the primary storage system, the P-VOL, the secondary storage system, and the S-VOL. Reformat failed tracks using ICKDSF, and restart the initial copy operation using the Add Pair dialog box.
