Table 7 Troubleshooting installation—HP StoreVirtual VSA for VMware vSphere

Problem

You want to reinstall the VSA

You cannot find the VSA with the CMC, and cannot recall its IP address.

You cannot configure RAID.

In Windows

If the Installation wizard freezes, reset the Hardware Acceleration in Windows.

Solution

1.Close your CMC session.

2.In the VI Client, power off the VSA.

3.Right-click and select Delete from Disk.

4.Copy fresh files into the virtual machine folder from the downloaded .zip file or distribution media.

5.Open VMware and begin again.

Open the Configuration Interface. Navigate to the Network Settings window to verify the IP address.

Verify that the VSA has a virtual disk configured on SCSI 1:0. VSAs use SCSI 0:0 and 0:1 for operating system disks. They use the disk configured for SCSI 1:0 for SAN data storage. If no SCSI disk is configured for SCSI 1:0 then RAID cannot be configured on the appliance.

1.Open the Windows Display SettingsAdvanced settingsTroubleshoot tab.

2.Move the Hardware Acceleration slider to one notch above None.

3.Click OK, and then OK again to leave the Properties dialog.

4.Restart the Installation wizard.
