the tests listed in the

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.)
