Tasks for Using Network Storage Agent to Locate Faulty Disks
TABLE 3-2
Task
1. Find the device name of the faulty disk.
2. Find the Network Storage Monitor HTML page that lists
the faulty disk.
3. Start the LED blinking on a disk's slot or on the array's
enclosure.
4. Find the disk by locating a blinking LED on the front of
the array (if the array's location is known).
5. Find the array that contains the faulty disk by means of
a Unit ID assigned to the ESM(s) and recorded in a map
during installation of the array.

Locating a disk by finding a blinking LED can
only be done easily if you know the location of
the array. If you have a large number of arrays,
and if you do not already know the location of
the array, you might be able to locate it by Unit
ID as described in Task 5.

ESM(s)" on page 3-14
Note: The above mentioned procedure works
only if you assigned a Unit ID to the ESM(s) as
described in Step 2 on page 6
recorded the number in your storage unit map as
described in Step 8 on page 4
