3 Check the boxes next to the self-tests you want to be performed.
To disable self-tests
Unlike scheduling of rebuilds and verifies, scheduling of self-tests is always
enabled.
To disable self-tests you must either remove all schedule times, or uncheck
the tests listed in the
Tasks column.
Locating a Drive by Blinking Its LED
You can easily identify the drives in a unit, or an individual drive, by causing
the LEDs associated with the drives to blink.
You can issue the command to blink the LED through 3DM.
(For details about what the different LED patterns on the enclosure mean, see
“Enclosure LED Status Indicators” on page 63.)
To blink the LED for a drive
1 Do one of the following:
• Choose
Information > Drive Information from the main menu in
3DM. On the Drive Information page, identify the drive you want to
physically locate.
• Choose
Monitor > Enclosure from the main menu in 3DM. On the
list of enclosures, click the ID number of the enclosure. On the
Enclosure Detail page, identify the drive you want to physically
locate.
2 Check the box in the
Identify column.
The LED on the enclosure begins blinking.
3 When you are finished working with the drive and no longer need to see
the LED, return to this page and uncheck the
Identify box.
