HP Integrity Servers with Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Release Notes v6.1

in the lower bays (Port A, bays 1-7) have been hot-plug replaced even though
the drives were not replaced.
As a result, the array controller can fail the logical volumes, causing the data
to become inaccessible. If the operating system is running from those drives,
the server might hang or display a blue screen. When the server is rebooted,
the drives appear to be working properly; however, some data might be
inaccessible. A Power-On Self-Test (POST) error message is not displayed. The
problem occurs regardless of the position of the power supply or fans in the
enclosure. This affects any StorageWorks Enclosure Model 4314R, Model 4314T,
or Model 4354R in a dual bus configuration with an Ultra3 Dual Bus I/O Module
and a single power supply, attached to either Smart Array 5302 or Smart Array
5304 Controller.
