-23          MESSAGE    CS80_UNIT_AVAILABLE
                      A multi-unit disk device has notified the host
                      system that a disk unit that was previously locked
                      by another host system has now been unlocked, and
                      is now available for use.

           CAUSE      The host system receiving this status had
                      previously attempted to access a unit that was
                      locked by another host system.  That attempted
                      access was rejected due to the unit lock imposed by
                      the other host system.  The lock has been removed.

           ACTION     Since MPE/iX does not yet support multi-unit disk
                      devices, the host system should never receive this
                      notification.  If it does, either a hardware error
                      or system software error has occurred.  Call your
                      Hewlett-Packard representative.

---------------------------------------------------------------

-24          MESSAGE    CS80_LOST_SPINDLE_SYNCH
                      A multi-mechanism disk controller has detected that
                      the mechanisms within the device are no longer
                      rotationally synchronized within the specified
                      tolerance.

           CAUSE      Some hardware problem within one or more of the
                      disk mechanisms is causing the spindle
                      synchronization circuitry to lose synchronization
                      lock.

           ACTION     Continue to use the disk.  It will operate
                      correctly even if spindle synch is lost.  Its speed
                      of operation will be somewhat reduced.  Call your
                      Hewlett-Packard Representative to discuss the
                      problem further.

---------------------------------------------------------------

-25          MESSAGE    CS80_MECHANISM_SKIPPED
                      A multi-mechanism disk array device controller has
                      detected that one of the "striped with parity" disk
                      mechanisms is UNASSIGNED: present, not broken, but
                      not part of a logical unit.  The "skipped" mech is
                      not being used by the device.

           CAUSE      A mechanism has been physically removed and
                      replaced with another mechanism, or the disk
                      diagnostic program has issued a Set Skip Drive
                      command, and, in either case, the disk's REBUILD
                      operation has not yet been performed.

           ACTION     Use the FLEXDIAG diagnostic program to perform a
                      REBUILD operation on the disk device.  After
                      successful REBUILDing, the mechanism that was being
                      skipped will no longer be skipped:  it will be
                      assigned to the striped logical unit.

---------------------------------------------------------------

-179         MESSAGE    CS80_STRIPED_XOR_ERROR
                      A multi-mechanism disk array device controller has
                      detected an XOR Error on a Read Data operation on a
                      Striped With Parity disk device.  The parity
                      computed from the striped data did not match the
                      parity stored on the Data Protect disk.

           CAUSE      1) Failure to properly format a Striped With Parity
                      disk device.
                      2) Reading data from an area of the disk media that
                      had not been completely written.

           ACTION     Call your Hewlett-Packard Representative.

---------------------------------------------------------------

-180         MESSAGE    CS80_UNKNOWN_HW_STATUS_CLASS
                      The hardware status from the disk device could not
                      be recognized by the system software because the
                      value of the first byte of status (the "status
                      class") was not one of the legal values defined for
                      the device.

           CAUSE      Hardware problem in the disk device or in the
                      cabling or interfaces between the disk device and
                      the host system.

           ACTION     Call your Hewlett-Packard Representative.

---------------------------------------------------------------

-181         MESSAGE    CS80_UNKNOWN_HARDWARE_ERR
                      The hardware status from the disk device could not
                      be recognized by the system software because the
                      value of the second byte of status was not one of
                      the legal values defined for the Hardware Error
                      status class.

           CAUSE      Hardware problem in the disk device or in the
                      cabling or interfaces between the disk device and
                      the host system.

           ACTION     Call your Hewlett-Packard Representative.

---------------------------------------------------------------

-182         MESSAGE    CS80_UNKNOWN_RESOURCE_ERR
                      The hardware status from the disk device could not
                      be recognized by the system software because the
                      value of the second byte of status was not one of
                      the legal values defined for the Resource Error
                      status class.

           CAUSE      Hardware problem in the disk device or in the
                      cabling or interfaces between the disk device and
                      the host system.

           ACTION     Call your Hewlett-Packard Representative.

---------------------------------------------------------------

-183         MESSAGE    CS80_UNKNOWN_COMMAND_ERR
                      The hardware status from the disk device could not
                      be recognized by the system software because the
                      value of the second byte of status was not one of
                      the legal values defined for the Command Error
                      status class.

           CAUSE      Hardware problem in the disk device or in the
                      cabling or interfaces between the disk device and
                      the host system.

           ACTION     Call your Hewlett-Packard Representative.

---------------------------------------------------------------

-184         MESSAGE     CS80_NO_SELFTEST_PERFORMED
                      The disk array controller on a disk array device
                      that is a "link device" (i.e.  is directly
                      connected to the host system by fiber-optic cable)
                      has rejected a device-wide selftest command that
                      was issued by the host system.

           CAUSE      Diagnostic program software error.  Diagnostic
                      programs should not issue device -wide selftest
                      commands to disk array devices when they are "link
                      devices".  The disk array controllers are designed
                      to reject such commands.

           ACTION     Check to see that the diagnostic program is being
                      run correctly.  If it is, and this error persists,
                      call your Hewlett-Packard Representative.

---------------------------------------------------------------

-185         MESSAGE    CS80_CONFIGURATION_FAULT
                      During a device power-on selftest, the disk array
                      device controller could not satisfy the device
                      configuration (operating mode) that was specified
                      by the settings of the device's front-panel
                      configuration switches.

           CAUSE      Device installation error or hardware failure.
                      Either the configuration switch settings are wrong,
                      or the drive modules are wrongly located in the
                      disk array module slots, or one or more drive
                      modules have failed.

           ACTION     Check for and correct improper configuration switch
                      settings or drive module placements.  Check for
                      failed drive modules.  If none of these checks
                      reveal and correct the problem, then call your
                      Hewlett-Packard representative.

---------------------------------------------------------------

-186         MESSAGE    CS80_FIRMWARE_UPGRADE_MODE
                      A host system has issued a transaction to a disk
                      array device at a time when the device cannot
                      perform the transaction, due to a lack of
                      operational firmware in the disk array device
                      controller.

           CAUSE      The host system, under diagnostic program control,
                      attempted to upgrade the controller firmware in the
                      disk array device controller (by downloading new
                      firmware), and that upgrade operation did not
                      complete successfully.

           ACTION     Call your Hewlett-Packard Representative.

---------------------------------------------------------------

-187         MESSAGE    CS80_TOO_MANY_SPARES
                      The disk device controller has rejected a SPARE
                      BLOCK command issued by the host system.  The
                      command was rejected because ten or more SPARE
                      BLOCK commands had already been given to the device
                      since it was last powered-on.

           CAUSE      Probably a hardware problem in the disk device has
                      been causing the disk device to report an excessive
                      number of Unrecoverable Read errors to the host
                      system, thus causing the host to issue an excessive
                      number of SPARE BLOCK commands.

           ACTION     Call your Hewlett-Packard Representative.

---------------------------------------------------------------

-188         MESSAGE    CS80_MECHANISM_FAULT
                      The disk array device controller has detected
                      sufficient error conditions in one of the disk
                      mechanisms to cause the controller to declare the
                      mechanism to be faulty.  The controller has removed
                      the mechanism from service.

           CAUSE      A mechanism within a disk array device has exceeded
                      its allowable error threshold.

           ACTION     Call your Hewlett-Packard Representative.  If this
                      is a Parity-Protected disk array device and this is
                      the only mechanism that has faulted, then the
                      device will continue to operate correctly.  If not,
                      the device will go "offline".

---------------------------------------------------------------

-189         MESSAGE    CS80_UNABLE_TO_SKIP_MECH
                      CS80 hardware status indicates that the device has
                      received an improper "Set Skip Drive" command from
                      the host system.  The command was improper because
                      its execution would have caused the disk unit to
                      "go offline" and be inoperable.

           CAUSE      In disk array devices, either a Parity-Protected
                      Striped Unit already has one "skipped" or "faulted"
                      mechanism (and so cannot tolerate another skipped
                      mechanism) or else a Non-Parity-Protected Unit has
                      been asked to skip a mechanism; it can't.

           ACTION     This condition indicates improper operation by or
                      of the host system's disk diagnostic software.
                      Check to see that the diagnostic program is being
                      run correctly.  If it is, and the problem persists,
                      call your Hewlett-Packard Representative.

---------------------------------------------------------------

-190         MESSAGE    CS80_VIRT_CIRCUIT_IN_USE
                      Disk hardware status indicates that the device
                      received a new command that used the same Virtual
                      Circuit Number as a previous command that is still
                      executing.

           CAUSE      Possible intermittent problem in disk hardware,
                      cabling or interface hardware, or a system software
                      error.

           ACTION     If the problem persists, take a system dump, and
                      call your Hewlett-Packard Representative.

---------------------------------------------------------------

312          MESSAGE    DISK ARRAY HAS DISABLED A MECHANISM IN LDEV #.
                      NOW IN DATA RECOVERY MODE.  NO DATA LOST OR
                      CORRUPTED.   OPERATION MAY CONTINUE.  PLEASE PLACE
                      SERVICE CALL SOON.

           CAUSE      A mechanism in the disk array has suffered a
                      failure.  The disk array is in data recovery mode
                      and no immediate action need be taken on the part
                      of the user.

           ACTION     This message will be repeated on the console once a
                      minute until the operator acknowledges that he has
                      seen it by replying 'yes' to it.  A service call
                      should be placed in the near future.

---------------------------------------------------------------

313          MESSAGE    ACKNOWLEDGE DISABLED MECHANISM IN DISK ARRAY IN
                      LDEV #

           CAUSE      This is the acknowledgement message which
                      corresponds to the repeating message regarding the
                      disabled mechanism in the disk array.

           ACTION     This message must be replied to (Y) in order to
                      stop the repeating message.
