Identify Drive
Select the length of time to identify the physical drive from the drop-down list box and then click
the Start button. The page automatically refreshes, and then an image of an identified drive and
a Stop button appears. Click the Stop button to end identification before the time expires.
After the drive identification completes, the page must be manually refreshed to display the Start
button. There may be a delay, depending on the length of the HP Insight Management Agents
data collection interval, after the drive identification completes and before the Start button appears.
Only drives in hot plug trays are supported since the LEDs are part of the tray. Only one drive on
a selected controller may be identified at a time. If a different drive is selected while another drive
is currently identified then the other drive stops identification and the selected drive is identified.
IMPORTANT:
The Start or Stop button only be appears if you are logged on as an administrator
or an operator, SNMP Sets are enabled, and a SNMP Community string has been defined with
'write' access. Go back to the Summary page and select login to login as an administrator or
operator. SNMP Sets can be enabled in the HP Insight Management Agents control panel applet
on the SNMP Settings page. A SNMP Community string with 'write' access can be defined in the
SNMP Service Properties Security page located in Computer Management under Services. The
drive icon does not blink in Microsoft Internet Explorer unless Play animations in web pages is
enabled in the Internet Options Tools menu under the Advanced tab in the Multimedia section.
