3.

Verify that the fiber cable is fully seated at either end.

 

 

If optical power meter is available, verify the device is transmitting a

 

 

signal.

 

 

If there is no signal present, the device may require rebooting, device

 

 

drivers may need to be reinstalled, or the HBA or disk controller

 

 

hardware may require servicing.

 

 

If a signal is present on both the cable lead and the end node, the HBA

 

 

or disk controller may require service.
