Eventlog and Host Log Messages

All HP 3PAR system debug messages can be seen using the showeventlog -debug cli command. On the ESX host, errors are reported in /var/log/vmkernel files. Use the showalert HP 3PAR OS CLI command to see alerts and warnings posted from the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage. Some examples of storage server posted messages:

•If the user has set the space allocation warning for a TPVV volume, the system eventlog will show the Thin provisioning soft threshold reached message when the limit is hit.

Example:

1 DebugHost error undefined Port 1:5:2 -- SCSI status 0x02 (Check condition) Host:sqa-dl380g5-14-esx5 (WWN 2101001B32A4BA98) LUN:22 LUN

(TE_PASS	-- Success) after 0.000s (Abort source unknown) toterr:74882,
lunerr:2

•If the user has set a hard limit on the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage volume when using HP 3PAR OS 2.3.1 MU2 or later, the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage will post the write protect error (ASC/Q: 0x27/0x7) when the limit is reached. This is considered a hard error, and the VM is stunned in ESX 4.x and ESXi 5.x. Additional space needs to be added to the storage to clear the error condition.

For ESX 4.x or ESXi 5.x, an ESX host managed by vSphere client or vCenter Server will scan for LUNs at 5-minute intervals by issuing the REPORT LUN command and discovering any new LUNs.
