Was this helpful? Does the HP P2000 G3 Storage support SSDs? Was this helpful? How do I initially configure an HP P2000 G3 Storage system?
  1. Complete the hardware installation steps outlined in the Installation Checklist (steps 1 through 8).
  2. Access the web-based management interface, SMU (Storage Management Utility), by invoking your web browser and entering the IP address of the controller module's network port.
  3. Sign in to SMU using the default user name manage and password !manage .
  4. Once familiar with SMU, configure and provision the storage system using the SMU, referring to the SMU reference guide or online help for specific topics like "Configuring the system" and "Provisioning the system".
Was this helpful? What are the connectivity options for the HP P2000 G3 Storage?
  • Serial Attached SCSI (SAS): Each controller module provides two dual SFF-8088 mini-SAS host ports supporting data rates up to 6Gb/second per lane for host connections.
  • Ethernet: Used for remote management via an RJ-45 Ethernet cable connected to the network management port on each controller.
  • CLI port (mini-USB Type B): Used for direct cabling to the controller for initial IP address setup or other configuration tasks.
Was this helpful? What is the proper shutdown procedure for an HP P2000 G3 Storage system?
  1. Stop all I/O from hosts to the system.
  2. Shut down both controllers using either the SMU (Storage Management Utility) or the command-line interface (CLI).
  3. For AC models, disconnect the power cord’s male plug from the power source and then disconnect the power cord’s female plug from the power cord connector on the PSU.
  4. For DC models, press the power switches at the back of the controller enclosure to the Off position and then press the power switches at the back of each drive enclosure to the Off position.
Was this helpful? What do the LED indicators on the HP P2000 G3 Storage mean?
  • Front panel LEDs for the controller enclosure indicate Enclosure ID, Disk drive Online/Activity, Disk drive Fault/UID, Unit Identification (UID), Heartbeat, and Fault ID.
  • Disk drive LEDs indicate Online/Activity and Fault/UID status.
  • Rear panel LEDs on the controller enclosure indicate Power supply, Host 6Gb SAS Link Status and Activity, OK to Remove, Unit Locator, FRU OK, Fault/Service Required, Network Port Activity and Link Status, Cache Status, and Expansion Port Status.
  • Rear panel LEDs for D2700 6Gb drive enclosure indicate Power supply, Unit Locator, OK to Remove, Fault/Service Required, FRU OK, SAS In Port Status, and SAS Out Port Status.
  • Rear panel LEDs for MSA2000 3Gb drive enclosure indicate Power supply, Unit Locator, SAS In Port Status, OK to Remove, Fault/Service Required, FRU OK, and SAS Out Port Status.
  • Power supply LEDs indicate Input Source Power Good and Voltage/Fan Fault/Service Required.
Was this helpful? Can I mix different drive types in an HP P2000 G3 Storage enclosure? No, you should not mix 6Gb and 3Gb disk drives in the same enclosure. Was this helpful? How do I monitor the health of my HP P2000 G3 Storage system?
  • Access the web-based management interface, SMU (Storage Management Utility), which is used to monitor and manage the storage system.
  • Review the enclosure LEDs (front panel, disk drive, rear panel, and power supply LEDs) which are designed to alert users of any system faults. SMU can also be used to verify faults found while viewing the LEDs.
  • Review the event logs, which record all system events and can help identify faults or events that might have caused them. The storage system monitors conditions such as power, cooling fan, temperature, and voltage using sensors located at key points in the enclosure.
Was this helpful? Why is my HP P2000 G3 Storage not accessible from my host server?
  1. Halt all I/O from hosts to the system.
  2. Check the host activity LED. If there is activity, halt all applications accessing the storage system.
  3. Reseat the cable and inspect it for damage. If the host link status LED is off, proceed to the next step.
  4. Move the cable to a port with a known good link status. This helps isolate if the problem is with the cable or the controller module's port.
  5. Verify that any switch is operating properly. If possible, test with another port.
  6. Verify that the HBA (Host Bus Adapter) is fully seated and that its PCI slot is powered on and operational.
  7. If the host link status LED is still off, replace the HBA with a known good HBA, or move the host-side cable to a known good HBA.
  8. Move the cable back to its original port. If the host link status LED is still off, the controller module's port has failed and the controller module needs to be replaced. If it is on, monitor the connection for intermittent problems. Additionally, you can:
  • Check cable connections and reseat them.
  • Inspect cables for damage.
  • Swap cables to determine if the fault is caused by a defective cable and replace if necessary.
  • In SMU, review event logs for indicators of a specific fault in a host data path component.
  • Contact an authorized service provider for assistance.
