Troubleshooting: Your Storage Array Software 241

Locating an Expansion Enclosure

You can use the Blink option to physically locate and identify an expansion
enclosure in the storage array.
The LED activation varies according to the type of expansion enclosure that
you have.
• If you have an expansion enclosure with a white LED, the Blink Expansion
Enclosure operation causes the white LED on the expansion enclosure to
come on. The LED does not blink.
• If you have any other types of expansion enclosures, this operation causes
the appropriate LED on all of the physical disks in the expansion enclosure
to blink.
To locate the expansion enclosure:
1
Select the
Physical
tab.
2
Select a physical disk in the expansion enclosure that you want to locate.
3
Select
Physical Disk
Blink
Expansion Enclosure
.
The LED or LEDs on the expansion enclosure or physical disks come on.
4
When you have located the expansion enclosure, click
OK
.
The LEDs stop blinking. (If you have an expansion enclosure with a blue
LED, the LED goes off). If any other blink operations (Blink Storage Array,
Blink Disk Group, Blink Physical Disk Ports, Blink Expansion Enclosure, or
Blink Physical Disk) are currently being invoked from another storage
management station, these LEDs also stop blinking.
5
In the rare case that the LEDs on the expansion enclosure do not stop
blinking, from the Array Management Window, select
Storage Array
Blink
Stop All Indications
.
If the LEDs successfully stop blinking, a confirmation message appears.
