•The Fibre Channel indicator shows Fibre Channel activity when lit. If this indicator fails to light at all, or stays continually lit without corresponding SCSI bus activity, it may indicate a problem with the Fibre Channel link. Verify the Fibre Channel Configuration.
•The Ethernet indicator signifies Ethernet activity when lit. If the light fails to flicker, or if it stays continually lit, it may indicate a problem with the network connection. Verify the network connection. The port must be connected to a 10BaseT Ethernet network to function properly.
Basic Verification
Verify SCSI Bus Configuration
Problems with SCSI bus configuration are common. Basic operation of a SCSI bus can be checked by using the configuration menu to view attached SCSI devices. See Chapter 6 for more information. Other conditions to look for include:
•Termination – Problems with termination can cause intermittent or hard failure. A SCSI bus must be terminated on both ends, and only both ends. Termination issues when both narrow and wide devices are on the same bus are common.
•Bus Type –
•Device ID – Each device on a SCSI bus must have a unique ID. Also check the configured ID’s for the FCR200 to verify these are not in use by other devices on the same SCSI bus.
•Cabling – Check SCSI cables to verify they are functional. SCSI rules for total length, distance between devices, and stub length must be adhered to. Connections should also be checked and reseated if necessary.
