A-4 Sun StorEdge A1000 and A3x00/A3500FC Best Practices Guide • November 2002
■ The state of the components in the A3x00/A3500FC (for example are there any
failed controllers or drives, have any cables been disconnected, etc)
■ A copy of the output from RAID Manager 6 health check
Note – The engineer that is working on low level A3x00/A3500FC firmware may
not be very familiar with low level system administration commands, details of the
configuration, or how the system operates. The engineer will require detailed
information to determine what the problem is. In general, if the problem can be
narrowed down to an easily reproduced scenario or one that doesn’t take a long
time to replicate, the engineer will have a better chance of duplicating the problem
in the lab.
