cpqDaPhyDrvFormatErrs

Module: CPQIDA-MIB

OID (symbolic): CPQIDA-MIB::cpqDaPhyDrvFormatErrs

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.3.2.5.1.1.31

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: Counter

Access: read-only

Description: Format Error.

The number of times a format operation failed when the controller attempted to remap a bad sector during the reference time (phyDrvRefTime). Zero indicates that no format errors have occurred. The value increases each time a format error occurs. A failed format operation may cause the controller to mark a drive failed.

If you suspect a problem, schedule server down time to run diagnostics verify a problem exists.

What is cpqDaPhyDrvFormatErrs?

cpqDaPhyDrvFormatErrs counts how many times a format operation failed while the controller tried to remap a bad sector on a physical drive during the reference time window. Because a failed remap can lead the controller to mark the whole drive failed, any increase here is an early signal of media problems on that disk. For example, an admin seeing this counter go from zero to nonzero on a drive would schedule diagnostics before the controller itself takes the drive offline.
