For Vess with two RAID controllers, one of them enters maintenance mode in the event of:
• Adifferenceofsomekindbetweenthetwocontrollers(describedbelow)
• Aninternalcontrollerfailure
When a controller enters maintenance mode, it goes ofine and it displays N/A (not accessible) under Readiness
Status.
You must nd and correct the cause of the problem and then take the controller out of maintenance mode (see
page 628).
