MAP1240 Locating FRUs using identify indicators
About this task
The primary method to locate a FRU to be exchanged is by using the hierarchy of identify indicators for that FRU. When the FRU to be exchanged has been selected in a serviceable event, or selected using the FRU replace options, the management console will cause the hierarchy of identify indicators to be lit.
For example, if
you select to exchange a storage enclosure DDM FRU from a serviceable
event, the following identify indicators will be lit:
- Rack identify indicator (on the rack operator panel) for the rack that contains the FRU
- Storage enclosure identify indicator for the enclosure that contains the FRU
- DDM identify indicator for the specific DDM that is to be replaced
For those FRUs that do not have an identify indicator (see Table 1, Table 2), the rack and enclosure identify indicators will still be lit. To determine the actual FRU within the enclosure, you need to use the last part of the location code for that FRU. See MAP1245 Finding FRUs by using location codes
For more information about LEDs, see LED indicators.
