Displaying member space
Click Group, then expand Members, then select the member name, and then click the Status tab.
The Member Space panel shows the total amount of usable space on the member, how much space is used by
volumes, snapshots, and replicas, and the amount of free space, numerically and in a graphic.
Using LEDs to identify a member
If a hardware failure occurs in a member, the group generates an alarm which causes the member LED to light.
In addition, to help you identify a member
, you can make the fan tray LED and the control module ERR LED on
the member chassis flash.
• To make a member’s LED flash, click
Group, then expand Members, then select the member name, and then
click
Start LEDs flashing.
• To stop flashing a member’s LED, click Group, then expand Members, then select the member name, and then
click
Stop LEDs flashing
Warning: Never turn off power to a group member unless the member has been cleanly shut down. See Shutting
down a member on page 6-
14.

supplies), and, on some array models, channel cards and an EIP card.
To display the member enclosure information, click
Group, then expand Members, then select the member name,
and then click the
Enclosure tab.
