Library /sys$common/syshlp/MSA_UTIL_HELP.HLB  —  LOCATE
              Format:
                      LOCATE <parameter>

              When the above-mentioned command is executed, the LEDs of
              the requested drives will blink. These LEDs are visible from
              the front of the attached storage enclosures.

              Note:
                   - If time limit is not included with the
                     LOCATE command, the LEDs will blink for
                     30 seconds. In some cases, the LEDs may
                     not blink but will remain steady.

                   - LOCATE command, does not work from the
                     STANDBY CONTROLLER

1  –  ALL 

              LOCATE All causes all the drives connected to the MSA
              storage sub-system to flash.

2  –  BOX 

              LOCATE BOX causes the disks connected to the specified
              box/enclosure number to flash.

3  –  BUS 

              LOCATE BUS causes the disks connected to the specified
              bus number to flash.

4  –  CANCEL 

              LOCATE CANCEL cancels the current locate operation.

5  –  DISKS 

              LOCATE DISKS will make the specified drive to flash.
              Disks are identified by their corresponding SCSI bus
              and SCSI IDs for all the controllers. For SAS controllers,
              internally connected disks are numbered based on their bay
              numbers and externally connected disks are numbered
              based on combination of their box number and bay number
              as "disk_n = box number *100 + bay number".

              Note: The disk numbers for the existing disks can be obtained
                    using the SHOW DISKS command.

6  –  UNIT 

              LOCATE UNIT causes the disks configured to the specified
              unit to flash.

7  –  Qualifiers

7.1    /Time 

              Time value contains the time interval for which the disk's
              LED should flash.

              Format:
                      /TIME=xxx-(optional) the length of time to flash
                      the LEDs, where xxx represents the number of seconds.

7.2    /Verbose 

              Provides logging that can be interpreted by engineering.

8  –  Examples 

              - Locating all drives attached to the storage enclosure

                Example command
                LOCATE ALL

              - Locating all drives in a specific BOX

                Example command
                LOCATE BOX 1

                Command options:
                BOX 1 -  the drives in BOX 1 will be flashed.

              - Locating all drives for a specific SCSI bus

                Example command
                LOCATE BUS 1

                Command options:
                BUS 1 - all drives connected to bus number 1 will be flashed.

              - Locating all drives in a specific UNIT

                Example command
                LOCATE UNIT 1

                Command options:
                UNIT 1 - the drives in UNIT 1 will be flashed.

              - Locating specific drives

                Example command
