Alert Descriptions and Corrective Actions
The following sections describe alerts generated by the RAID or SCSI controllers supported by Storage Management. The alerts are
displayed in the Server Administrator Alert tab or through Windows Event Viewer. These alerts can also be forwarded as SNMP traps to
other applications.
SNMP traps are generated for the alerts listed in the following sections. These traps are included in the Server Administrator Storage
Management, management information base (MIB). The SNMP traps for these alerts use all of the SNMP trap variables. For more
information on SNMP support and the MIB, see the
SNMP Reference Guide.
To locate an alert, scroll through the following table to find the alert number displayed on the Server Administrator Alert tab or search this
file for the alert message text or number. See Understanding Event Messages for more information on severity levels.
For more information regarding alert descriptions and the appropriate corrective actions, see the online help.

Description
Physical disk removed.
Severity Warning / Non-critical
Cause and Action Cause: A physical disk has been removed from the disk group. This alert can also be caused by loose or defective
cables or by problems with the enclosure.
Action: If a physical disk was removed from the disk group, either replace the disk or restore the original disk. On
some controllers, a removed disk has a red
X for its status. On other controllers, a removed disk may have an
Offline status or is not displayed on the user interface. Perform a rescan after replacing or restoring the disk. If
a disk has not been removed from the disk group, then check for problems with the cables. See the online help for
more information on checking the cables. Ensure that the enclosure is powered on. If the problem persists, check
the enclosure documentation for further diagnostic information.
