A.6 Troubleshooting Procedures
When a fault occurs, several things can happen. If it is a non-critical fault, the system will continue to process data. If it is
a critical fault, the system (or a subsystem) may be inoperative. When troubleshooting the system, determine the fault
first by using the LEDs and screen messages. Then, verify that the component(s) is out of service using the
ftsmaint
ls
command (PA-8500 Continuum Series 400 Technical Service Guide (HP-UX systems, Section 2.6.3), error logs, and
diagnostic tests. This flow is shown in the Troubleshooting Flow below.
