Failing
component
Continue after
failure? What happens and how to recover
Disk module Yes Provides the same features as the basic configuration
but with better performance and higher availability.
Applications continue running. System Administrator or
service provider replaces module.
SP Yes With HP-UX 10.x, if one SP fails, ownership of the failed
SP’s LUNs can transfer automatically to the remaining
operational SP. If a primary and an alternate path have
been configured in LVM, LVM can switch automatically
to the alternate path (LVM applies to HP-UX 10.x and
later). These operations are transparent to the user.
Fan failure
within fan pack
Yes Applications continue running. System Administrator or
service provider replaces module.
Power supply Yes If a redundant power supply module is present,
applications continue running; otherwise, the disk array
fails. Service provider replaces power supply and
System Administrator restarts the operating system, if
necessary.
SCSI-2 adapter/
cable
No* If the adapter/cable fails, I/O operations to array disk
units fail. Authorized service provider replaces adapter
or cable and System Administrator restarts operating
system and applications.
