Faulty power cords

Check that you have correctly cabled the system. Contact IBM support for replacements if:
  • Power cables are missing or damaged.
  • Plugs are incorrect.
  • Power cables are too short.

Controller Node does not recognize the small disk enclosure system

  1. Verify that the interface cables from the enclosure to the IBM COS node controller are fitted correctly.
  2. Verify that the LEDs on all installed drive carrier modules are on (green).
  3. Verify that the drive carrier modules have been correctly installed.
  4. Check any visible SAS indicators (COS Controller Node HBA, and IOM control module).
  5. Verify that ClevOS has been installed correctly.
