Warning and Error Events
There are a number of conditions that trigger warning or error
events, activate the audible alarm, and may affect the state of the
Status and Fault LEDs. The audible alarm sounds mainly when
Adaptec Disk Array Administrator displays a warning or error
event.
Table 7-1 and Table 7-2 provide a list of warning and error events
and recommended actions to take to fix the problems.
Warnings
Warning events let you know that something related to the
controller or an array has a problem. You should correct the
problem as soon as possible. Table 7-1 defines each warning event
and recommends the action you should take.
