132 Troubleshooting
Cache data was lost,
but the controller has
recovered. This could
be due to the fact
that your controller
had protected cache
after an unexpected
power loss and your
system was without
power longer than the
battery backup time.
Press any key to
continue or 'C' to
load the configuration
utility.
This message is displayed
under the following
conditions:
• The adapter detects that
the cache in the
controller cache has not
yet been written to the
disk subsystem.
• The controller detects an
Error-Correcting Code
(ECC) error while
performing its cache
checking routine during
initialization.
• The controller discards
the cache rather than
sending it to the disk
subsystem because the
data integrity cannot be
guaranteed.
To resolv e this
problem, allow the
battery to charge fully.
If the issue persists, the
battery or adapter
DIMM might be faulty;
contact Dell Technical
Support.
The following virtual
disks have missing
disks: (x). If you
proceed (or load the
configuration
utility), these
virtual disks will be
marked OFFLINE and
will be inaccessible.
Please check your
cables and ensure all
disks are present.
Press any key to
continue, or 'C' to
load the configuration
utility.
The message indicates that
some configured disks were
removed. If the disks were
not removed, they are no
longer accessible. The SAS
cables for your system
might be improperly
connected.
Check the cable
connections and restart
the system.
If there are no cable
problems, press any key
or <C> to continue.
