One of our Netware servers had popped up as degraded in insight manager, when I drill down through the components, I find the cause is the Smart 2/P controller is the degraded component, with the error "Disable CMD". This translates as Disable Command Issued, and Compaq say this is due to an operating system device driver. The solution is to reboot the system into the system configuration utility to reinitialise the array accelerator board. I'm just a little concerned as I don't want to loose the array configuration, and in consequence, the data.
