Managing an Enclosure
3ware enclosure management features let you view the status of enclosure
hardware, such as fans, power supplies, and temperature sensors through
3DM, and locate individual hardware components by blinking LEDs
associated with them.
Enclosure management features in 3ware software are available for
enclosures with expanders that support SCSI Enclosure Services 2 (SES-2).
Note:
The SAFTE (SCSI Accessed Fault Tolerant Enclosure) specification is
not supported at this time.
A list of supported enclosures is available at
http://www.3ware.com/products/sys_compatibility.asp
Depending on the manufacturer of your enclosure, you may see variations in
the features supported by your enclosure from the ones described in this
chapter. For details about what features are supported, refer to the
documentation for your enclosure.
This chapter describes how to view and locate enclosure-specific hardware.
For information about identifying drives in an enclosure, see “Locating a
Drive by Blinking Its LED” on page 152.
