    What does path rejected mean on HP StorageWorks P9000?
    • R
      reedmarcSep 14, 2025
      If you encounter a 'Path Rejected' error (MCU/RCU) on your HP Storage, start by deleting the failed path. Additionally, delete all paths and secondary systems that are not currently in use. Remember that the primary system can connect to a maximum of four secondary systems, with up to eight paths to each system. Ensure that all primary and secondary system ports are properly configured: use ordinary RCU target ports for secondary systems and initiator ports for primary systems. If necessary, connect to the secondary system to delete paths, reconfigure the ports, then reconnect to the primary system and add the path or secondary system again using Edit Path or Add RCU.

    How to recover from a HP StorageWorks P9000 hardware blockade?
    • R
      Richard RosalesSep 12, 2025
      If hardware redundancy has been lost due to some blockade condition, remove the hardware blockade or failure according to the SIM. Restore the failed volume pairs (Pairresync). If a failure occurs during execution of the RAID Manager horctakeover command, secondary volumes in SSWS pair status may remain in the master journal. If these volumes remain, execute the pairresync -swaps command on the secondary volumes whose pair status is SSWS. This operation changes all volumes in the master journal to primary volumes. After this operation, restore the volume pairs (Pairresync).

      John ChandlerSep 23, 2025
      If the code to customize does not exist in the code conversion table of your HP Storage, check the code to customize, and then re-execute the process.

    What to do if HP Storage pair create operation resulted in a timeout error?
    • K
      Kyle OliverAug 25, 2025
      If a pair create or resync operation on your HP Storage results in a timeout error, and a SIM was generated due to a hardware failure, call HP Technical Support after the problem is solved, then retry Cnt Ac-J Z operations. If no SIM was generated, wait 5-6 minutes and check the pair status. If the status changed correctly, the operation completed after the timeout. If the status did not change, retry the operation during a lighter workload. If there is a communication error between the Remote Web Console and the SVP, consult the HP StorageWorks P9000 Remote Web Console User Guide.
