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.

MAP1240 Section-1

Procedure

  1. Locate the storage facility to be serviced.
  2. Observe the operator panel identify LED Callout label 1 on each rack in the storage facility.
    Figure 1. Model 941 "Identify" indicator (LED) on a rack operator panel

    Figure 2. Model 951 "Identify" indicator (LED) on the upper right of the front cover
    Model 951 "Identify" indicator (LED) on the upper right of the front cover
  3. The FRU will be in the rack with the operator panel identify LED blinking. Go to step 4.
  4. The FRU identify LED indicator you will attempt to find in the following steps may not be lit under these circumstances:
    • The LED is burnt out.
    • The FRU that contains the LED is no longer able to control the LED.
    • The LED may be controlled by a different FRU that feeds a signal directly or by a cable to the FRU to be identified. The controlling FRU or the cable could have a problem.
    • If the FRU identify LED indicator is not operational, you will need to use the location code to determine the failing FRU.
  5. Open the front and rear covers of the rack containing the FRU determined in the above steps.
  6. You will now locate the area of the rack containing the FRU.
    1. Use the FRU description and FRU location code from a serviceable event FRU list or the exchange FRU option to find the area of the rack containing the FRU:
      • For rack models 941, 94E see Table 1.
      • For rack models 951, 95E see Table 2.

      The MTMS (machine type model serial number) is the first part of the FRU location code. Example: Location code = U2424.941.75ABCD0-C2 where U2424.941.75ABCD0 = MTMS and C2 = FRU location within the MTMS.

      Note: If a FRU is contained in an enclosure, only the enclosure is listed below. If the FRU is not contained in an enclosure, then it is listed in the table.
