Locating a Storage Subsystem

Use this option to physically locate and identify a Storage Subsystem. An indicator light is activated on each drive in the Storage Subsystem. You can use this option, for example, to identify the particular Storage Subsystem currently displayed in the Subsystem Management Window so that it can be renamed and labeled.


How to Locate a Storage Subsystem

1 To physically locate a Storage Subsystem, either (1) select the Storage Subsystem >> Locate pull-down menu option; or (2) Use the right mouse button to select the Storage Subsystem in the Logical View, then select Locate from the pop-up menu.

Result: The Locate dialog is displayed. The indicator lights on the drives in the Storage Subsystem flash.
2 When you have located the Storage Subsystem, select OK.

Result: The lights will stop flashing. If there are any other Locate operations (Locate Array, Locate Drive) currently being invoked from another management station, these lights will also stop flashing.

Note: If the lights from the Locate Storage Subsystem operation do not stop flashing, use the Stop All Indications option to stop the process manually.
