Disabling The Audible Alarm; Enclosure Number Feature - HP StorageWorks 6100 - Enterprise Virtual Array User Manual

Disabling the audible alarm

CAUTION:
Disabling the audible alarm increases the potential of damage to equipment from a reported but
unobserved fault. HP does not recommend disabling the audible alarm.
Disabling the audible alarm affects only one enclosure. This action does not affect condition report
displays on the EMU alphanumeric display or errors reported by HP Command View EVA.
To disable the alarm:
1. Press and release the bottom push-button until the alphanumeric display is Au.
2. Press and hold the top push-button until the alphanumeric display is a Flashing on (Audible Alarm
On).
NOTE:
When the alarm display is flashing, pressing and holding the top push-button causes the
display to rapidly change between on and oF and also causes the display to select the next
state.
3. Press and release the top push-button to change the display to a Flashing oF (Audible Alarm Off).
4. Press and release the bottom push-button to accept the change and display Au. The bottom
push-button indicator is now on.
NOTE:
A disabled
error condition. To ensure that you are immediately alerted to error conditions, it is
recommended that the alarm mute function be used rather than the alarm disable function.
If you must use the disable function, remember to enable the audible alarm as soon as
possible to ensure that you are alerted to errors.
