Failed Physical Disk Channel on RAID Controller Module
What Caused the Problem?
A physical disk channel has failed on a RAID controller module.
The Recovery Guru Details area provides specific information you will need as you follow the Recovery Steps.
Caution: Electrostatic discharge can damage sensitive components. Always use proper antistatic protection when handling components. Touching components without using a proper ground may damage the equipment.
Important Notes
- You will need to replace the RAID controller module that has the failed physical disk channel.
- Depending on the model of your RAID controller module, the battery may be integrated inside the RAID controller module module, rather than residing in a separate module. If the RAID controller module you are replacing contains a battery, you may have to insert the battery from the old RAID controller module module into the new replacement RAID controller module module. Consult your hardware documentation for details.
