Component identification Controller components For cabling configuration and troubleshooting purposes, connector names are silk-screened on the controller. For LED locations and status, see "Controller LEDs (on page 6)." Item Description Cache module Battery or capacitor pack connector* Internal SAS connector *The 2 GiB cache module connects to a capacitor pack.
Controller LEDs Immediately after you power up the server, the controller runtime LEDs illuminate briefly in a predetermined pattern as part of the POST sequence. At all other times during server operation, the illumination pattern of the runtime LEDs indicates the status of the controller. P430 controller, 2 GB cache module Item Color...

Installation and configuration Procedures for controllers in a server To install a stand-up controller in a server, choose one of the following procedures: • Installing a stand-up controller in an unconfigured server ("Installing a controller in an unconfigured server" on page 13) •...
Power down the server. CAUTION: In systems that use external data storage, be sure that the server is the first unit to be powered down and the last to be powered back up. Taking this precaution ensures that the system does not erroneously mark the drives as failed when the server is powered up. Power down all peripheral devices that are attached to the server.
Install the cache module. Slide the controller board along the slot alignment guide, if one is present, and then press the board firmly into the expansion slot so that the contacts on the board edge are seated properly in the slot. Secure the controller board in place with the retaining screw.

• Accessing HPE SSA in the online environment This method requires an administrator to download the HPE SSA executables and install them. You can run HPE SSA online after launching the host operating system. For more information, see "Accessing HPE SSA in the online environment" in the HPE Smart Storage Administrator User Guide.

For more information about using RBSU, see the ROM-Based Setup Utility User Guide or the server user guide. These documents are both available on the Documentation CD supplied in the server kit. UEFI Boot Mode boot options On servers operating in UEFI Boot Mode, the boot controller and boot order are set automatically. Press the Power On/Standby button.

Drive procedures Identifying the status of an HPE SmartDrive HPE SmartDrives are the latest Hewlett Packard Enterprise drive technology, and they are supported beginning with ProLiant Gen8 servers and server blades. The SmartDrive is not supported on earlier generation servers and server blades. Identify a SmartDrive by its carrier, shown in the following illustration.
• When failed drives are located inside the server or storage system and the drive LEDs are not visible, the Health LED on the front of the server or server blade illuminates. This LED also illuminates when other problems occur such as when a fan fails, a redundant power supply fails, or the system overheats.
Compromised fault tolerance can also be caused by problems unrelated to drives. In such cases, replacing the physical drives is not required. Recovering from compromised fault tolerance If fault tolerance is compromised, inserting replacement drives does not improve the condition of the logical volume.
In some situations, you can replace more than one drive at a time without data loss. For example: • In RAID 10 configurations, drives are mirrored in pairs. You can replace several drives simultaneously if they are not mirrored to other removed or failed drives. •...

CAUTION: Because data rebuild time operates at the rate of 200GB/15 minutes, the system could be unprotected against drive failure for an extended period during data recovery or a drive capacity upgrade. When possible, perform rebuild operations only during periods of minimal system activity.
Back up any unsaved data. Remove the drive that was originally to be replaced, and reinsert the replacement physical drive. The rebuild process automatically restarts. When the rebuild process has finished, replace the newly failed drive. However, if the newly failed drive has not recovered: Remove the drive that was originally to be replaced, and reinsert the replacement physical drive.
CAUTION: If the number of physical or logical drives exceeds the limit for the controller model and firmware version, then the controller may recognize an unpredictable subset of the drives, possibly resulting in failed arrays and data loss. • If the other controller is connected already to one or more arrays of configured logical drives, the total number of logical drives on the controller after the drives have been moved must not exceed the number of logical drives that the controller supports.

drive in the array. Each logical drive keeps the same fault-tolerance method in the enlarged array that it had in the smaller array. When the expansion process has finished, you can use the liberated storage capacity on the enlarged array to create new logical drives. Alternatively, you can use HPE SSA to enlarge (extend) one of the original logical drives.
Electrostatic discharge Preventing electrostatic discharge To prevent damaging the system, be aware of the precautions you need to follow when setting up the system or handling parts. A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage system boards or other static-sensitive devices.
