3. From the Disk Service Aids window, select the disk drive that you want to put into
Service Mode.
Notes:
a. The Link column shows the connectors of the IBM SerialRAID Adapter to
which the loop is connected.
b. The SSA UID column shows the unique identifier of each disk drive.
A dashed line in the SSA UID column shows that the SSA loop is broken. On
the screen shown here, the loop is broken between the third and fourth disk
drives.
c. The Status column shows the status of the disk drive; for example, “Power”
and “Failed”.
4. Press F4 to set Service Mode. Verification information is displayed.
Notes:
a. You can select only one disk drive at time.
b. If you set Service Mode and the selected disk drive is not in a closed loop or
at the end of a string, the operation fails and an error message is displayed.
c. If the Check light of the disk drive that you have put into Service Mode does
not come on, and you are not sure of the location of that disk drive, use the
Identify function to help you find it (see “The Identify Function” on page 37). If
necessary, you can identify the disk drives that are on each side of the one
you are trying to find.
