Under “Maintenance and Support,” click the Patch Database link, then search for the patch number. For more information on how to manage and install patches, see the Patch Management User Guide for HP-UX 11.x Systems at http://www.hp.com/go/hpux-core-docs.

This is normal behavior under these conditions, and is not affected by patch PHCO_36356.

Corrective Action: Reconnect the cables or reinsert the disks, then reset the Smart Array controller using the sautil reset_ctlr command. After the controller is reset, ioscan correctly reports the status of the disks as CLAIMED. • Disconnected external storage enclosures are not properly detected by ioscan. If you disconnect all cables connecting a Smart Array controller to external storage enclosures, saconfig and sautil show the status of the logical drives as FAILED.
