700   The Fibre Channel adapter that was previously present has not been detected.

Explanation

A Fibre Channel adapter that was previously present has not been detected. The adapter might not be correctly installed, or it might have failed.

This node error does not, in itself, stop the node canister from becoming active in the system; however, the Fibre Channel network might be being used to communicate between the node canisters in a clustered system. It is possible that this node error indicates why the critical node error 550 A cluster cannot be formed because of a lack of cluster resources is reported on the node canister.

Data:

  • Location—A number indicating the adapter location. The location indicates an adapter slot, see the node canister description for the definition of the adapter slot locations

User response

  1. If possible, this noncritical node error should be serviced using the management GUI and running the recommended actions for the service error code.
  2. There are a number of possibilities.
    1. If you have deliberately removed the adapter (possibly replacing it with a different adapter type), you will need to follow the management GUI recommended actions to mark the hardware change as intentional.
    2. If the previous steps have not isolated the problem, use the remove and replace procedures to replace the adapter, if this does not fix the problem replace the system board.

Possible Cause—FRUs or other cause:

  • Fibre Channel adapter
  • System board
