Locating a Drive by Blinking Its LED

3 Check the boxes next to the self-tests you want to be performed.

To disable self-tests

Unlike scheduling of rebuilds and verifies, scheduling of self-tests is always enabled.

To disable self-tests you must either remove all schedule times, or uncheck the tests listed in the Tasks column.

Locating a Drive by Blinking Its LED

You can easily identify the drives in a unit, or an individual drive, by causing the LEDs associated with the drives to blink.

You can issue the command to blink the LED through 3DM.

(For details about what the different LED patterns on the enclosure mean, see “Enclosure LED Status Indicators” on page 63.)

To blink the LED for a drive

1Do one of the following:

Choose Information > Drive Information from the main menu in 3DM. On the Drive Information page, identify the drive you want to physically locate.

Choose Monitor > Enclosure from the main menu in 3DM. On the list of enclosures, click the ID number of the enclosure. On the Enclosure Detail page, identify the drive you want to physically locate.

2Check the box in the Identify column. The LED on the enclosure begins blinking.

3When you are finished working with the drive and no longer need to see the LED, return to this page and uncheck the Identify box.
