Applies to:

Sun Storage 3310 Array

All Platforms

Goal

All Sun StorEdge 3000 Arrays use audible alarms. The alarm will
generate a "morse code" beeping pattern. This document identifies all
the audible alarms the array can generate.

Solution

Description
The beep code alarms always begin with the critical component failure alarm and are then followed by the alarms for each failed component. Then the whole sequence repeats.


Steps to Follow
Failed component beep codes.

Failure

Morse Code Letter

Morse Code Sound Pattern

Critical Component Failure or Firmware Mismatch

8 dashes

Power Supply 0 Failure

Unrecoverable alarm status from RAID controller
SOS
... --- ...
Informational tone status from RAID controller (2)
1 dash, 3 dots, 1 dash
-...-
Non-critical tone status from RAID controller (3)
8 dots
........

1. The SES/PLD error code is for the 3510 and 3511 only.

2. Indicates that an informational event has occurred. Refer to the event log for details.

3. Indicates that a non-critical event has occurred. Refer to the event log for details

This information can be difficult to locate but is documented in the Sun StorEdge[TM] 3000 Family Installation, Operation, and Service Manual.


Note: There are three ways to mute the audible alarm. This ONLY mutes
      the beeper. It does not fix the problem.
 - cli (sccli)           *mute
 - telnet/tip interface  *System Functions -> Mute Beeper
 - On the array          *Push the white audible alarm button (front right corner)
