Compaq Fibre Array Fibre Channel Array Physical Drive Spin up Time

1.3.6.1.4.1.232.16.2.5.1.1.21

Spin up Time in tenths of seconds. This is the time it takes for a physical drive to spin up to full speed. Disks require time to gain momentum and reach operating speed. As cars are tested to go from 0 mph to 60 mph in x number of seconds, drive manufacturers have preset expectations for the time it takes the drive to spin to full speed. Drives that do not meet these expectations may have problems. The value may be zero (0) under one of the following conditions: * If you are monitoring a physical drive that is part of the monitored system's internal drive array storage, and you use a warm boot to reset the monitored system. During a warm boot, the drives continue to spin. * If you have a Compaq Drive Array but have a version of the physical controller ROM that is less than version 1.00. If you have used an upgrade utility on versions less than 1.00, the value may still be zero. * If you are monitoring a physical drive in an Intelligent Array Expansion System and you reset the monitored system but not the Intelligent Array Expansion System. If you suspect a problem, schedule server down time to run Compaq Diagnostics and select the Drive Monitoring Diagnostics option to verify that a problem exists. If the value cannot be determined, -1 is returned.
