NVRAM SCSI Parameters Do Not Match

 

NVRAM SCSI Parameters Do Not Match

 

On hp servers rp7410, rp8400, and superdome only, you might see the

 

following message after you have installed the A6828A adapter (it would

 

be displayed at the BCH “Main Menu”):

 

ERROR: PDH NVRAM and I/O card NVRAM SCSI parameters

 

do not match for path hw_path

 

Search aborted. The SCSI parameters for this card

 

must be corrected from the BCH Service menu.

 

To correct this problem, follow these steps:

Step

1. If already at the “Main Menu,” type ser (for “Service Menu”); go to step

 

2.

 

If not already at the “Main Menu,” type main (to return to the “Main

 

Menu”), type ser (for “Service Menu”), then go to step 2.

Step

2. In the “Service Menu,” type the following command:

 

scsi path default

 

where path is the HBA’s path (the hw_path in the error message).

 

This sets all of the SCSI parameters for the path to their default values,

 

which will correct the unmatching SCSI parameters.

Step

3. Type main to get back to the “Main Menu.”
