Summary

Virtual Disk warning state alert

Causes

Virtual Disk has generated warning alert. Probable causes and corresponding resolutions for this condition are:

Cause

Resolutions

Controller cache is preserved for missing or offline <VD Name>.

Try importing foreign disks, if any. Check if the enclosure containing the Virtual Disk is disconnected from the controller. Insert any disks that are reported missing or failed. If the enclosure or disks were removed intentionally, the preserved cache can be discarded. See storage hardware documentation for more information on performing these steps.

The consistency check found inconsistent parity data on <virtual disk>.

Rerun the consistency check task. If you receive this message again, verify the health of the physical disks included in the virtual disk. See the storage hardware documentation for more information. Review messages for significant messages related to the physical disks. If a physical disk has a problem, replace it and restore from a backup copy. Contact technical support if the issue persists.

The consistency check logging of inconsistent parity data is disabled for <virtual disk>.

See the storage hardware documentation for more information on consistency check operation. Contact technical support.

The virtual disk <VD number> identified in the message cannot be used because of an ID conflict with another virtual disk.

Power cycle the system chassis to restore the virtual disk. If this does not correct the problem then contact your service provider.

<virtual disk> is degraded either because the physical disk drive in the drive group is removed or the physical disk drive added in a redundant virtual drive has failed.

Do the following and retry the operation: 1) Insert a physical disk drive. After the drive is inserted, the previous data is automatically rebuilt by the system. 2) If not already done, configure a hot-spare for the virtual drive. 3) If a physical disk drive is removed from the disk drive group, either replace the disk or restore the original disk drive.

<virtual disk> initialization is terminated.

Restart the initialization.

<virtual disk> is unavailable because of incompatibilities with the current controller.

Update the controller firmware and license to match the peer controller.
