1.3.4Audible Alarm

The RAID subsystem comes with audible alarms that are triggered when certain active components fail or when certain controller or subsystem thresholds are exceeded. When you hear an audible alarm emitted from the subsystem, it is imperative that you determine the cause and rectify the problem immediately.

WARNING!

Failing to respond when an audible alarm is heard can lead to permanent subsystem damage. When an audible alarm is heard, rectify the problem as soon as possible.
