Module: CPQFCA-MIB

OID (symbolic): CPQFCA-MIB::cpqFcaPhyDrvRecvWriteErrs

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.16.2.5.1.1.18

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter

Access: read-only

Description: Recovered Write Errors.

This shows the number of write errors corrected through physical drive retries or recovered by a physical drive during the reference time (phyDrvRefTime).

Over time a disk drive may produce these errors.

If you notice an increase in the value shown for Hard Write Errors or Recovered Write Errors, a problem may exist with the drive.

The value increases every time the physical drive detects and corrects an error. Only an unusually rapid increase in these errors indicates a problem.

On average, these errors should occur less frequently than hard read errors. If you suspect that a problem may exist with the drive, run diagnostics.

If the value cannot be determined, 4,294,967,295 is returned.

What is cpqFcaPhyDrvRecvWriteErrs?

This counter reports the number of write errors that were corrected through the physical drive's retries during the reference time. An admin watches this in combination with hard write errors, since an average disk does produce some recovered write errors over time, but a sharp increase in either counter together points to a developing problem with the drive. For example, a recovered write error count that suddenly spikes after a power event might indicate the drive sustained some damage worth investigating.
