Message Description  Recommended Action 
Logical Drive X 
status = FAILED 
This status could be issued for 
several reasons. If this logical drive is 
configured for No Fault Tolerance 
and one or more drives fail, this 
status occurs. If mirroring is enabled, 
and any two mirrored drives fail, this 
status occurs. If Data Guarding is 
enabled, and two or more drives fail 
in this unit, this status occurs. This 
status may also occur if another 
configured logical drive is in the 
WRONG DRIVE REPLACED or LOOSE 
CABLE DETECTED state. 
Check for drive failures, wrong drive replaced, 
or loose cable messages. If there was a drive 
failure, replace the failed drive(s), then restore 
the data for this logical drive from the tape 
backup. Otherwise, follow the wrong drive 
replaced or loose cable detected procedures. 
Logical Drive X 
status = 
INTERIM 
RECOVERY 
A physical drive in this logical drive 
has failed. The logical drive is 
operating in interim recovery mode 
and is vulnerable. 
Replace the failed drive as soon as possible. 
Logical Drive X 
status = LOOSE 
CABLE 
DETECTED 
A physical drive has a cabling 
problem. 
Power down the system and attempt to reattach 
the cable onto the drive. If this does not work, 
replace the cable. 
Logical Drive X 
status = NEEDS 
RECOVER 
A physical drive in this logical drive 
has failed and has now been 
replaced. This drive needs to be 
rebuilt from the mirror drive or the 
parity data. 
When starting the system, select the “F1 – 
rebuild drive” option to rebuild the replaced 
drive. 
Logical Drive X 
status = 
OVERHEATED 
The Intelligent Array Expansion 
System temperature is beyond safe 
operating levels, and the system has 
shut down to avoid damage. 
Check the fans and the operating environment. 
Logical Drive X 
status = 
OVERHEATING 
The Intelligent Array Expansion 
System temperature is beyond safe 
operating levels. 
Check the fans and the operating environment. 
Logical Drive X 
status = 
RECOVERING 
A physical drive in this logical drive 
has failed and has now been 
replaced. The replaced drive is 
rebuilding from the mirror drive or 
the parity data. 
Nothing needs to be done. Normal operations 
can occur. 
Logical Drive X 
status = WRONG 
DRIVE REPLACED 
A physical drive in this logical drive 
has failed. The incorrect drive was 
replaced. 
Replace the drive that was incorrectly replaced. 
Then, replace the original drive that failed with a 
new drive. Do not run the System Configuration 
Utility to reconfigure; data on drive will be lost. 
Loose cable 
detected – 
logical drives 
may be marked 
FAILED until 
corrected 
ADU found loose cable. If logical 
drives are marked FAILED, those 
logical drives are unusable until the 
problem is corrected. 
Power down the system. Check cable(s) for tight 
connection to logical drives. Restart system. If 
same message recurs, cable(s) may be bad.
