Having a problem with the HPACUCLI cmd on linux, at boot a hp p600 card is reporting an error, but I'm unable to determine which drive it is.
Instead of listing the separate drive status, I get one drive status repeated for the array

This can happen in certain setups, especially with really disparate components. E.g. the Smart Array P600 RAID controller was never meant to be used with 2TB SATA disks; and probably not Western Digital disks.
Either way, please output the result of
ctrl all show config detail
.You're on Ubuntu. Most of the troubleshooting methods I have depend on the answers to the above questions. For instance, the individual drive bay health on an HP system will also be reflected in the ILO... But if this is not an HP server or a model without ILO, that's not an option.
Your issue may just be the parity initialization error listed in your output. The size of the drives and whether this was a recent boot following a new installation may mean something. Also controller firmware... But fill in the details first.
