Products Affected:
- SuperTrak EX4650
- SuperTrak EX8650
- SuperTrak EX8654
- SuperTrak EX8658
- SuperTrak EX16650
Conditions:
Media Patrol was started in Background Activity.
Failure Mode/Symptom:
When the host computer sends I/O to the disk array which has Media Patrol BGA running, the Media Patrol status will change to "Yield"
Solution/Workaround:
None. This is normal.
Additional Comments:
Yielding means that the Media Patrol BGA is waiting for I/O to finish. It is the policy of Media Patrol not to run (State set to YIELD) while I/Os are active on the controller. After host I/O is finished and idle for a period if time, Media Patrol BGA will continue.
