RSA II adapter errors during installation or upgrade

This topic describes Remote Supervisory Adapter (RSA) II-related errors with X-series hardware during a SAN File System installation or upgrade.

Problem: During a clean install of the SAN File System or during an upgrade to SAN File System from a previous release, you may encounter errors related to the RSA II which is part of the IBM X-series platform. Some examples of these errors include: Cause: Possible communication failure with the RSA II.

Solution: Examine the TMVT (Target Machine Verification Tool) reports for each metadata server. If you find entries in the Failed Hardware Component Checks for the RSA II that show "missing," the RSA II might be failing. Try reseating the RSA II on the metadata server with the missing entry, and then rerunning the TMVT report. If the RSA II still shows "missing," contact IBM hardware support.
