ATTO Technology S-Class manual Power supply monitoring, System fault LED and error codes

Page 91

The Diamond Storage Array will function under normal external operating temperatures of 5°C and 40°C. Temperature sensors provide data to the software to trip a temperature warning alarm and will, at excessively high or low temperatures, disable disk drive activity to protect the drives. The Diamond reports the temperature via SES, CLI and the ExpressNAV interface as well as the state of the temperature warning alarm (Not

Present, OK, Warning, Critical). The temperature

warning alarm will report OK during normal operating conditions.

In an abnormal operating condition, such as blower failure, under high ambient temperatures when the Diamond internal midplane temperature reaches 47°C, the temperature alarm will report Warning and activate the audible alarm and fault LED on the front of the unit. If the internal midplane temperature were to reach 52°C, the temperature warming alarm will report Critical, the array will be taken off line, and all disk drive activity will be disabled. The exact external ambient conditions which the Array will be taken off line depends on data activity, but will occur between 38 and 42°C.

Exhibit 10.0-1 Typical Diamond Storage Array operation over a range of external ambient temperatures. Alarms will be audible, visual, CLI and SES cues as described above.

Power supply monitoring

The Diamond Storage Array monitors the operation of its power supplies and blower assemblies every 30 seconds. If the status changes, the system reports it visually with an LED and a message in the CLI.

If a power supply or blower fails, the management system sends a CLI message and turns off the corresponding power supply LED.

The blower assembly directly adjacent a power supply must be functioning properly for the power supply to work properly. If a blower assembly fails, the power supply will shut down and the management system will send a CLI message. The corresponding power supply LED on the system management card will also turn off.

If a good replacement power supply or blower assembly is inserted into the array, the management system will send a CLI message and the corresponding system management card LED will go on. It may take up to 30 seconds for the system to note these changes.

System fault LED and error codes

If a serious hardware or software error occurs in the Diamond Storage Array, the System Fault LED will display a series of flashes or blink codes. Error information will be reported via the Command Line Interface if it is operational.

At power up, the green Diamond Array Ready (RDY) LED turns on after successful completion of the POST (Power On Self Test) indicating the array is available for normal operation.

During operation, the Ready LED will stay lit even if the amber Fault (FLT) LED lights.

If a serious error occurs in the array, the amber Fault LED will flash repeatedly in a blink code pattern
