The format process begins for the entire array. Depending on the 
array configuration, formatting can take from 10 to 20 minutes to 
complete. The table below identifies how to interpret the display/
operation panel messages during the format process.

If a drive fails during a format operation initiated through the display/operation 
panel, the error code shown below appears:

The code is read as follows:

The failed drive should be replaced immediately.

If the previous message is ignored, the failed drive not replaced, and a Reset 
started, a second message is displayed at the completion of the Reset. This error 
message should be ignored.

To correct this condition, it is necessary to replace the failed drive and re-issue 
the Format command.
