Lost AC Power
The causes and resolutions refer to the Dell Modular Disk Storage Manager recovery guru. Launch Dell Modular Disk Storage Manager to diagnose and fix the recovery failure as follows:
Open Start >> Programs >> Dell >> MD Storage Manager >> Modular Disk Storage Manager Client.
If the MD Storage Array is already being managed by MDSM, you can proceed with the Causes and Resolution sections.
From Edit -> Add Storage Array, provide the IP address of the MD Storage Array and Add it to the discovered devices configuration in order to manage it.
Select the MD Storage Array and follow the steps specified in this recovery guru.
AC power to the storage array has been lost. The Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is operating on battery power. The Recovery Guru Details area provides specific information you will need as you follow the recovery steps.
Important Notes
Because the UPS has switched to battery power, you should save data frequently, in case the battery power becomes depleted. If your UPS has limited capabilities, you might want to shut down the storage array.
Refer to the manufacturer's documentation for more information on the capabilities of your UPS.
