Creating Storage Maps
Configuring a subsystem is easier if you know how the storagesets, partitions, and
JBODs correspond to the disk drives in your subsystem. You can more easily see
this relationship by creating a hardcopy representation, also known as a storage
map.
To make a storage map, fill out the templates provided in Appendix A as you add
storagesets, partitions, and JBOD disks to the configuration and assign them unit
numbers. Label each disk drive in the map with the higher levels it is associated
with, up to the unit level.
Using LOCATE Command to Find Devices
If you want to complete a storage map at a later time but do not remember where
the disk drives and partitions are located, use the CLI command
LOCATE. The LOCATE
command flashes the (fault) LED on the drives associated with the specific
storageset or unit. To turn off the flashing LEDs, enter the CLI command
LOCATE CANCEL.
To locate all the disk drives that make up unit D104:
1. Enter the following command:
LOCATE D104
The LEDs on the disk drives that make up unit D104 flashes.
2. Note the position of all the drives contained within D104.
3. Enter the following command to turn off the flashing LEDs:
LOCATE CANCEL
To locate all the drives that make up RAIDset R1:
1. Enter the following command:
LOCATE R1
2. Note the position of all the drives contained within R1.
3. Enter the following command to turn off the flashing LEDs:
LOCATE CANCEL
