    How to resolve HP StorageWorks P9000 Storage communication failures?
    • J
      Janet FosterSep 12, 2025
      If communication between the primary and secondary systems failed because the secondary system or network relay devices were not running, remove the failure from the primary and secondary systems or the network relay devices. If necessary, increase resources as needed (for example, the amount of cache, the number of paths between primary and secondary systems, the parity groups for journal volumes, etc.). Restore the failed pairs (Pairresync).

    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.

    • M
      madelinehuberSep 16, 2025
      To resolve a PSUE / S-VOL Failure error on HP Storage: * Check the path status on the RCU Status dialog box. If errors occurred on the path, clear the error conditions. * Clear any error conditions at the remote system or S-VOL, then resynchronize the pair from the primary system. * If you need to access the S-VOL to clear the error conditions, release the pair from the secondary system. After you clear the error conditions, re-create the pair.
