18 Locating a System

This operation helps locate a system by oscillating the node status LEDs amber and green on all
nodes of the system. If desired, LEDs in all connected drive cages can be set to amber or oscillate,
depending on the drive cage type.

NOTE:

This operation can only be performed by users with Super, Service, or Edit privilege

levels.

To locate a system:
1.

Select Systems in the Manager Pane.

2.

From the Management Tree, right-click the system you want to locate, then select Locate System.

3.

Specify a Duration for the LED(s) to oscillate (For other systems prior to EOS: Duration). For
EOS systems, the range is 1–3600 seconds, with a default duration of 900 seconds. For other
systems prior to EOS, the range is from 1 and 255 seconds, with a default of 60 seconds.

4.

Optionally, if you want the drive cage LEDs to turn amber or oscillate as well, select the Include
Cage(s) checkbox.

5.

Click OK to start the locate operation.

Once you have selected the Locate action, the Storage Systems tree node is displayed and the
Storage Systems summary screen lists the currently connected systems. The locate icon flashes next
