Locating an Expansion Enclosure
You can use the Blink option to physically locate and identify an expansion
enclosure in the storage array.
The LED activation varies according to the type of expansion enclosure that
you have.
• If you have an expansion enclosure with a white LED, the Blink Expansion
Enclosure operation causes the white LED on the expansion enclosure to
come on. The LED does not blink.
• If you have any other types of expansion enclosures, this operation causes
the appropriate LED on all of the physical disks in the expansion enclosure
to blink.
