A Troubleshooting
This appendix is designed to be used like Frequently Asked Questions section. It will help you find
solutions to some of the common issues that might arise when running HP IIAS.
Correcting conditions with SFPs and FC cables/connectors
Replace the FC cable/Connector with another cable/connector which is in good condition. If the
problem is indeed with the cable/connector, HP IIAS will not raise any diagnostics log for the SFP.
If HP IIAS continues to raise diagnostics log for the SFP then, replace the SFP. If HP IIAS does not
raise any diagnostics log for the SFP, then the replaced SFP is in good condition and the problem
is addressed successfully.
