3.Select the Diagnostics tab and click Power-on Self Test (POST). A warning dialog box appears.

Using Beaconing

The beaconing feature enables you to force a specific HBA’s LEDs to blink in a particular sequence. The blinking pattern acts as a beacon, making it easier to locate a specific HBA among racks of other HBAs.

When you enable beaconing, the two LEDs blink rapidly in unison for 24 seconds, after which the LEDs report the HBA health status for 8 seconds. When the 8 seconds are up, the HBA returns to beaconing mode. This cycle repeats indefinitely until you disable this feature or you reset the HBA.

Note: The beaconing buttons are disabled if the selected HBA does not support beaconing.

To enable or disable beaconing:

1.Start the HBAnyware utility.

2.From the discovery-tree, select the HBA whose LEDs you wish to set.

3.Select the Diagnostics tab and click Beacon On or Beacon Off.
