The Ready–to–Remove LED to locate a drive does not work when using the cfgadm -c unconfigure command on Sun Blade T6320 or Sun Blade T6340 blade servers.
Run the format command to select the device that you need to locate.
Example:

Find the serial number for the device that you selected in Step 1.
Issue the command: iostat -En > iostat_output
Sselect the iostat_output file and search for "Cxtx...." number of the disk identified in step 1.

Make a note of the serial number from the iostat_output file for the locate device. For example:

Run the REM's sas2ircu utility to do the following:
Find the SAS2 controller number/index using sas2ircu LIST command.
bash-3.00# ./sas2ircu LIST LSI Corporation SAS2 IR Configuration Utility. Version 3.250.02.00 (2009.09.29) Copyright (c) 2009 LSI Corporation. All rights reserved. Adapter Vendor Device SubSys SubSys Index Type ID ID Pci Address Ven ID Dev ID ----- ------------ ------ ------ ----------------- ------ ------ 0 SAS2008 1000h 72h 00h:700h:00h:00h 1000h 3180h SAS2IRCU: Utility Completed Successfully.
Find the drives connected to this controller using sas2ircu n display > sas2ircu_output.
Where n is the controller number from the Step 3a.
bash-3.00# ./sas2ircu 0 display > sas2ircu_output
Look for the serial number that matches the value in Step 2 from the sas2ircu_output file.
Once the serial number is identified, look for the enclosure/slot# that corresponds to this device.
If the enclosure ID# is 1, it indicates the drives are in a server blade. If Enclosure# is not 1, that indicates the drives are in a storage module.
The slot# refers to the disk slot number on the server blade or storage module.
Example for drives in a Sun Blade T6320 or T6340:
Note - In this example, the Enclosure and Slot numbers are 1, which means the drive is sitting in Slot#1 labeled as HDD1 on the server blade.
bash-3.00# cat sas2ircu_output Device is a Hard disk Enclosure # : 1 Slot # : 1 State : Ready (RDY) Size (in MB)/(in sectors) : 70007/143374737 Manufacturer : SEAGATE Model Number : ST973451SSUN72G Firmware Revision : 0302 Serial No : 0802V16VTE Protocol : SAS Drive Type : SAS_HDD
For drives in a Sun Blade X6270 M2, an example would be:
bash-3.00# cat sas2ircu_output Device is a Hard disk Enclosure # : 6 Slot # : 7 State : Ready (RDY) Size (in MB)/(in sectors) : 286102/585937499 Manufacturer : HITACHI Model Number : H103030SCSUN300G Firmware Revision : A2A8 Serial No : 0950GBEVNE Protocol : SAS Drive Type : SAS_HDD
Locate the drive in storage module.
Once you identify the Enclosure# and Slot#, use LOCATE subcommand of sas2ircu. The locate ID on the drive will start blinking (amber). If you replace the drive with another drive, turn off the locate LED using LOCATE sub command of sas2ircu. For example:
bash-3.00# ./sas2ircu 0 LOCATE 6:7 ON LSI Corporation SAS2 IR Configuration Utility. Version 3.250.02.00 (2009.09.29) Copyright (c) 2009 LSI Corporation. All rights reserved. SAS2IRCU: LOCATE command completed successfully. SAS2IRCU: Command LOCATE Completed Successfully. SAS2IRCU: Utility Completed Successfully. Please turn off drive locate LED after replacing the drive using following command: bash-3.00# ./sas2ircu 0 LOCATE 6:7 OFF
