Chapter 11. Troubleshooting 024h Sbuf memory test failed The 3ware RAID controller, as part of its data integrity features, performs diagnostics on its internal RAM devices. Once a day, a non-destructive test is performed on the cache memory. Failure of the test indicates a failure of a hardware component on the 3ware RAID controller. This AEN is sent to notify the user of the problem. If the controller is still under warranty, contact 3ware Technical Support for a replacement controller. 025h Cache flush failed; some data lost To improve performance, this 3ware RAID controller features caching layer firmware. For write commands this means that it acknowledges it has completed a write operation before the data is committed to disk. If the 3ware RAID controller can not commit the data to the media after it has acknowledged to the host, this AEN is posted to the user. Typically, the LOST CACHED WRITE notification would be an indication of a catastrophic failure of the drives in the array, such as loss of power to multiple drives in an array. 026h Drive ECC error reported This AEN may be sent when a drive returns the ECC error response to an 3ware RAID controller command. The AEN may or may not be associated with a host command. Internal operations such as Background Media Scan post this AEN whenever drive ECC errors are detected. Drive ECC errors are an indication of a problem with grown defects on a particular drive. For redundant arrays, this typically means that dynamic sector repair would be invoked (see AEN 023h). For non-redundant arrays (JBOD, RAID 0 and degraded arrays), drive ECC errors result in the 3ware RAID controller returning failed status to the associated host command. 027h DCB checksum error detected The 3ware RAID controller stores certain configuration parameters on a reserved area of each disk drive called the Drive Configuration Block (DCB). As part of power-on initialization, the 3ware RAID controller performs a checksum of the DCB area to ensure consistency. If an error occurs, please contact 3ware technical support. The drive's DCB has been corrupted. 028h DCB version unsupported During the evolution of the 3ware product line, the format of the DCB has been changed to accommodate new features. The DCB format expected by the 3ware RAID controller and the DCB that is written on the drive must be 232 3ware Serial ATA RAID Controller User Guide
