1.4.9 Blinking Lights to Test Connectivity

A simple test to verify that your Drobo 5N2 is connected, directly or indirectly, to your host
computer, is to use Drobo Dashboard to blink the lights on your Drobo device.
Note:
For some Drobo devices, you may need to be logged in to perform this action.
To blink lights to test connectivity:
1. In Drobo Dashboard on the All Drobos page, select the Drobo device whose lights you would
like to blink, and then click the Tools option from the Navigation menu. The Tools page for that
Drobo device opens.
2. In the Drobo Operations area, click the Turn Blink Lights ON option.
3. The drive lights on your Drobo device blink red and green alternatively for 15 seconds.
