Table 3-9 lists LCD error messages that the system detects when starting.
Add at least xMB more memory
Cannot initialize labels
Cannot read labels
Can't open /etc/rc
Dirty shutdown in degraded
mode
Configuration exceeds max PCI
space
Disk labels scrambled!
x—The amount of memory you need to
add to the system. The system has too lit-
tle memory for the amount of disk space
installed.
When it tries to create a new file system,
the system cannot initialize the disk
labels.
This error occurs only when the filer tries
to initialize a new file system. The mes-
sage indicates that the filer has a problem
reading disk labels it wrote to the disks.
This error occurs because
The system fails to read the size of a
disk.
The written disk labels were not valid.
The /etc/rc file is corrupted. Run setup by
entering setup at the hostname>
prompt.
The setup program prompts you to enter
the necessary system configuration infor-
mation. For more information about the
filer setup program, refer to the Dell
PowerVault 720N, 740N, and 760N System
Administrator and Command Reference
Guide.
The file system might be inconsistent
because you did not shut down the sys-
tem cleanly when it was in degraded
mode.
Memory space for mapping in PCI cards
has been exhausted.
Make sure that all expansion cards in the
filer are supported cards.
The disk labels are corrupted.
