Message Description  Recommended Action 
Adapter/NVRAM 
ID mismatch 
EISA nonvolatile RAM has an ID for a 
different controller from the one 
physically present in the slot. 
Run the BIOS Setup Utility. 
Array accelerator 
battery pack X 
not fully charged 
Battery is not fully charged.  If 75% of batteries present are fully charged, 
array accelerator is fully operational. If less than 
75% of batteries are fully charged, allow 
36 hours to recharge them. 
Array accelerator 
battery pack X 
below reference 
voltage 
(recharging) 
Battery pack on array accelerator is 
below required voltage levels. 
Allow enough time for batteries to recharge 
(36 hours). If batteries have not recharged after 
36 hours, replace the array accelerator board. 
Board in use by 
expand operation 
Array accelerator memory is in use 
by Expand operation. 
Operate system without array accelerator board 
until expand operation completes. 
Board not 
attached 
Array controller configured for use 
with array accelerator board, but one 
is not attached. 
Attach array accelerator board to array 
controller. 
Configuration 
signature is zero 
ADU detected that nonvolatile RAM 
contains a configuration signature of 
zero. Old versions of the BIOS Setup 
Utility could cause this. 
Run the latest version of BIOS Setup Utility to 
configure the controller and nonvolatile RAM. 
Configuration 
signature 
mismatch 
Array accelerator board configured 
for a different array controller board. 
Configuration signature on array 
accelerator board does not match the 
one stored on the array controller 
board. 
To recognize the array accelerator board, run 
the Array Configuration Utility (ACU). 
Controller 
communication 
failure occurred 
Controller communication failure 
occurred. 
ADU was unable to successfully issue 
commands to the controller in this slot. 
Controller 
detected. 
NVRAM 
configuration not 
present 
EISA nonvolatile RAM does not 
contain a configuration for this 
controller. 
Run the BIOS Setup Utility to configure the 
nonvolatile RAM. 
Controller 
firmware needs 
upgrading 
Controller firmware is below the 
latest recommended version. 
Run Options ROMPaq Utility to upgrade the 
controller to the latest firmware revision. 
Controller is 
located in 
special “video” 
slot 
Controller is installed in slot for 
special video control signals. If 
controller is used in this slot, LED 
indicators on front panel may not 
function properly. 
Install the controller in a different slot and run 
the BIOS Setup Utility to configure the controller 
and nonvolatile RAM. Then run the Array 
Configuration Utility (ACU) to configure 
controller.
