Description: SCSI Physical Drive Power On Self Test (POST) Errors.

This is the number of times that a drive failed its self test during the service time (phyDrvServiceHours). The drive does a self test each time power is applied to the system.

If you see any self test errors there may be a problem. You can run diagnostics to help identify the problem.

What is cpqScsiPhyDrvPostErrs?

This counter records how many times the drive's Power-On Self-Test failed during its service time, since the drive runs this test each time power is applied. Any nonzero count is treated as a potential problem worth investigating with vendor diagnostics. For example, a drive that logs a postErrs increment after a power cycle would prompt an admin to run the vendor's diagnostic utility on it.
