Hello everyone,
We have an MD3000i that experienced a power outage. When it came back up I was unable to connect to it - couldn't ping the iSCSI ports or the management ports.
By using the serial console cable I was able to see a bunch of errors. Each controller had a coredump and this error:
ERROR: QLGetFwState: MBOX_CMD_GET_FW_STATE failed. Stat f000
I was advised to replace both controllers. I have ordered the parts, but am wondering if simply replacing them will work. Or is there some configuration operation I need to perform? As I understand it, the RAID configuration is stored on the disks, but what about the controller config? e.g. IP info.
The MD3000i is End Of Life - so no support. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks!
-Fred.
