Description

This document provides hints to better identify the existence of power-supply problems in Sun Storage 3510 FC Arrays, 3511 SATA Arrays, and 33x0 SCSI Arrays.

The Failure symptoms may include any of the following:

- "Failed or absent power supply" reported by  "

- Amber Power Supply LED

- Power supply eventlog messages

Troubleshooting Steps

Steps to Follow
Please validate that each troubleshooting step below is true for your environment. Each step will provide instructions via a link to the document, for validating the step and taking corrective action as necessary. The steps are ordered in the most appropriate sequence to isolate the issue and identify the proper resolution. Please do not skip a step.”

NOTE: This is a sub-set of document :  Troubleshooting Sun StorEdge [TM] 33x0/351x Hardware .

1. Verify the power supply  hardware status is OK by issuing the following 2 sccli commands:

- sccli> show fru

 

- sccli>show enclosure-status

2. Verify the Power Supply LED is green.

3. Verify the eventlog or persistent-event log by issuing the sccli> show event or sccli> show persistent-event

to determine that the array is not reporting failures or absent events.

4. For 35x0 arrays,  review document  :"Sun Storage[TM] 3510 FC Array Experiences Unexpected SES Events",  to verify there are no  false Power Supply failures reported.

For example:

Thu Jun  8 18:00:44 2006

[3F3f] #5542:  SES Device on StorEdge Array SN#80502xx CH2 ID12: ALERT: PS 0 power supply state changed to critical

Thu Jun  8 18:00:44 2006

[3F3f] #5543:  SES Device on StorEdge Array SN#80502xx CH2 ID12: ALERT: PS 1 power supply state changed to critical

Thu Jun  8 18:01:42 2006

[3Fdf] #5544:  SES Device on StorEdge Array SN#80502xx CH2 ID12: NOTICE: PS 0 power supply is no longer critical

Thu Jun  8 18:01:42 2006

[3Fdf] #5545:  SES Device on StorEdge Array SN#80502xx CH2 ID12: NOTICE: PS 1 power supply is no longer critical

5. Verify the troubleshooting steps in the Power Supply and Fan Module section in the latest revision of the
Sun StorEdge 3000 Family Installation, Operation, and Service Manual. For the Sun StorEdge[TM] 3510 FC and 3511 SATA Arrays, refer to Document ID: 816-7300, and for the Sun StorEdge[TM] 33x0 SCSI Array, refer to Document ID: 819-1274.

6. If there are no problems encountered with the power supplies, refer back to document :  Troubleshooting Sun StorEdge [TM] 33x0/351x Hardware .
