Agent information 63
• Not Configured—The physical drive is not configured. Ensure that all of the drive switches are properly set.
• Bad Cable—A physical drive is not responding. Check the cables connected to the drive.
• Predictive Failure—One of the physical drive thresholds has been exceeded.
• Offline—The physical drive is offline and can no longer return data. No further status is available.
• Missing was OK—A physical drive that was located in the system and had a status of OK has been
removed.
• Missing was Failed—A physical drive that was located in the system and had a status of failed has been
removed.
• Missing was Predictive Failure—A physical drive that was located in the system and had a status of
Predictive Failure has been removed.
• Missing was Offline—A physical drive that was located in the system and had a status of offline has been
removed.
• Unknown—The Storage Agents cannot determine the status of this drive. You might need to upgrade your
driver software or Storage Agents.
NOTE: OK, Predictive Failure, and Unknown are the only values associated with clients.
• Action—Displays the action that is required for this device. The possible values are valid:
• Replace Drive—Replace this drive.
• Replace S.M.A.R.T. Drive—A S.M.A.R.T. hard drive predicts imminent failure. Schedule replacement before
actual failure.
• No Action Required—The drive is operating normally and no action is required.
• Capacity—Displays the size of the physical drive.
• Model—Displays the model of the SCSI physical drive.
• Firmware Version—Displays the firmware revision level of the SCSI physical drive.
• Serial Number—Displays the serial number assigned to the physical drive. This value is based on the serial
number as returned by the SCSI inquiry command, but might have been shortened due to space limitations. Use
this item for identification purposes.
• Service Hours—Displays the total number of hours that a physical drive has been operating. If physical drive
statistics are being saved across power cycles (check the SCSI Drive Statistics Preserved), then this value has
been kept since the physical drive was installed. Otherwise, this value has been kept since the driver was
loaded.
• S.M.A.R.T. Support—Indicates if S.M.A.R.T. support is available for this SCSI drive. The following values are
valid:
• Not Available—Predictive failure monitoring is not available for this drive.
• Available—This drive supports predictive failure monitoring.
• Unknown—The Storage Agents cannot determine if the drive supports predictive failure monitoring. You
might need to upgrade your driver or Storage Agents.
• Placement—Indicates if the physical drive is in an internal or external storage system. The following values are
valid:
• Internal—The physical drive is in an internal storage system.
• External—The physical drive is in an external storage system.
• Unknown—The physical drive is not in a storage system or the Storage Agents cannot determine the drive
placement.
—This symbol indicates that the drive is a hot-plug drive.
• Rotational Speed—Indicates the rotational speed of the drive in revolutions per minute.
• OS Assigned Name—Displays the operating system name associated with the disk drive.
Drive indicators
Select a SCSI physical drive from the SCSI controller submenu to display information on actions to take when a SCSI
physical drive is not operating properly.
Use the Predictive Indicators to predict that a drive is now operating normally, might need to be replaced. The
numerical data associated with these items displays after the item name. For example, “Used Realloc: 122” indicates
that there are 122 used reallocation sectors for this drive. The Predictive Indicators are as follows:
