MAP 5050: Power 2145-CF8, 2145-8G4, 2145-8F4, and 2145-8F2

MAP 5050: Power 2145-CF8, 2145-8G4, 2145-8F4, and 2145-8F2 helps you to solve power problems that have occurred on SAN Volume Controller models 2145-CF8, 2145-8G4, 2145-8F4, and 2145-8F2. If you are using a SAN Volume Controller 2145-8A4 or SAN Volume Controller 2145-4F2 node, see the Power MAP for that SAN Volume Controller model.

If you are not familiar with these maintenance analysis procedures (MAPs), first read Using the maintenance analysis procedures.

You might have been sent here for one of the following reasons:

A problem occurred during the installation of a SAN Volume Controller 2145-CF8, 2145-8G4, 2145-8F4, or 2145-8F2 node.
The power switch failed to turn the node on
The power switch failed to turn the node off
Another MAP sent you here

Perform the following steps:

Are you here because the node is not powered on?

NO

Go to step 10.

YES

Go to step 2.
(from step 1)

NO

Go to step 3.

YES

The node is powered on correctly. Reassess the symptoms and return to MAP 5000: Start or go to MAP 5700: Repair verification to verify the correct operation.
(from step 2)
Is the power LED on the operator-information panel flashing approximately four times per second?
NO

Go to step 4.

YES
The node is turned off and is not ready to be turned on. Wait until the power LED flashes at a rate of approximately once per second, then go to step 5.
If this behavior persists for more than three minutes, perform the following procedure:
1. Remove all input power from the SAN Volume Controller node by removing the power retention brackets and the power cords from the back of the node.
2. Wait one minute and then verify that all power LEDs on the node are extinguished.
3. Reinsert the power cords and power retention brackets.
4. Wait for the flashing rate of the power LED to slow down to one flash per second. Go to step 5.
5. If the power LED keeps flashing at a rate of four flashes per second for a second time, replace the parts in the following sequence:
  System board
Verify the repair by continuing with MAP 5700: Repair verification.
(from step 3)
Is the Power LED on the operator-information panel flashing approximately once per second?

YES

The node is in standby mode. Input power is present. Go to step 5.

NO

Go to step 5.
(from step 3 and step 4)
Press the power-on button on the operator-information panel of the node.

Is the Power LED on the operator-information panel illuminated a solid green?
NO
Verify that the operator-information panel cable is correctly seated at both ends.

(from step 1)
The node will not power off immediately when the power button is pressed. When the node is fully booted, power-off is performed under the control of the SAN Volume Controller software. The power-off operation can take up to five minutes to complete.

Is Powering Off displayed on the front panel?

NO

Go to step 12.

YES

Wait for the node to power off. If the node fails to power off after 5 minutes, go to step 12.
(from step 11)
Attention: Turning off the node by any means other than using the SAN Volume Controller Console might cause a loss of data in the node cache. If you are performing concurrent maintenance, this node must be deleted from the cluster before you proceed. Ask the customer to delete the node from the cluster now. If they are unable to delete the node, call your support center for assistance before you proceed.
The node cannot be turned off either because of a software fault or a hardware failure. Press and hold the power button. The node should turn off within five seconds.
Did the node turn off?

NO

Turn off the 2145 UPS-1U that is connected to this node.
Attention: Be sure that you are turning off the correct 2145 UPS-1U. If necessary, trace the cables back to the 2145 UPS-1U assembly. Turning off the wrong 2145 UPS-1U might cause customer data loss.

Go to step 13.

YES

Go to step 13.
(from step 12)
If necessary, turn on the 2145 UPS-1U that is connected to this node and then press the power button to turn the node on.

Did the node turn on and boot correctly?
NO

Go to MAP 5000: Start to resolve the problem.

YES

Go to step 14.
(from step 13)
The node has probably suffered a software failure. Dump data might have been captured that will help resolve the problem. Call your support center for assistance.
