    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).

    How to fix invalid port mode error on HP StorageWorks P9000?
    • J
      Jay VelezSep 14, 2025
      To fix an invalid port mode error on HP Storage, ensure the correct primary system port is configured as an initiator port and the correct secondary system port is configured as an RCU target port. Also, verify that you've entered the correct secondary system S/N, SSID, and path parameters, including port, link address, and logical address. If problems persist, delete the failed path. You may need to change the minimum paths setting or delete the secondary system to delete the path, then add the path or secondary system using Edit Path or Add RCU.
