Degraded drive path

A drive channel is experiencing intermittent errors along the path to one or more drives.

Important
  • You must contact your Technical Support Engineer to correct this failure. DO NOT attempt to fix it yourself.

  • If a "Loss of Path Redundancy" problem is also being reported in the Problems area of the Recovery Guru, you MUST fix this failure first; otherwise, you could lose both paths to the drives.

  • Correct this failure as soon as possible. The drives are still operational, but a level of path redundancy may be lost. If the other channel to any of these affected drives fails, the drives themselves could be failed.
