bays (Port A, bays 1-7) have been hot-plug replaced even though the drives
have not been replaced.
As a result, the array controller may fail the logical volumes, causing the data
to become inaccessible. If the operating system is running from those drives,
the server may hang or display a blue screen. When the server is rebooted, the
drives appear to be working properly; however, some data may be inaccessible.
A Power-On Self-Test (POST) error message is not displayed. The problem
occurs regardless of the position of the power supply or fans in the enclosure.
This affects any StorageWorks Enclosure Model 4314R, Model 4314T, or Model
4354R in a dual bus configuration with an Ultra3 Dual Bus I/O Module and a
single power supply, attached to either Smart Array 5302 or Smart Array 5304
Controller.
