Path Status Description and corrective actions
External device setting changed
  • Either change the settings back to the values used when the volume was mapped, or use Universal Volume Manager software to delete an LU and then add an LU.
  • The access attribute of the volume might have been changed by Data Retention Utility. If the volume is protected by the access attribute, release the protection.
Illegal request or Response error
  • If the volume is a pair volume, it might be protected because of the pair status. If this is the case, change the pair status or delete the pair. Make sure the volume is not set to a pair such as TrueCopy, Universal Replicator, ShadowImage, or global-active device.
  • The access attribute of the volume might have been changed by Data Retention Utility. If the volume is protected by the access attribute, release the protection.
Cannot detect port
  • There is a problem with connection to the external storage system. The possible causes are:
    • Cable connection.
    • Port settings. The topology settings of the local storage system port and the external storage system port might not match.
    • Switch settings. If the external storage system is connected through switches, make sure that the switch settings are correct.

Verify whether the cables are connected correctly, and then set the ports correctly.

LUN security might have been enabled. If so, verify whether the LUN security setting is correct.
