Supported Arrays​

This command applies to an individual DE2000H, DE4000H, DE4000F, DE6000H, or DE6000F storage array.

Roles​

Context​

Drawers are used in high-capacity drive trays. The drawers slide out of the drive tray to provide access to the drives. Use this command only for drive trays that use drawers. If the storage array does not support the Service Action Allowed indicator light feature, this command returns an error. If the storage array supports the command but is unable to turn on or turn off the indicator light, this command returns an error.

Notes​

Before you can enter this command, the drive tray must meet these conditions:

  • The drive tray cannot be over temperature.

  • The fans must have a status of Optimal.

  • All drive tray components must be in place.

  • The volumes in the drive drawer cannot be in a Degraded state. If you remove drives from the drive drawer and a volume is already in a Degraded state, the volume can fail.

Attention
Do not issue this command if you cannot meet any of these conditions.

All volumes with drives in the affected drive drawer are checked to make sure that the volumes have drawer loss protection before the command is sent. If the volumes have drawer loss protection, the Set Service Action Allowed command proceeds without stopping I/O activity to the volume.

If any volumes in the affected drawer do not have drawer loss protection, you must stop I/O activity to those volumes. A warning appears, which indicates that this command should not be completed.

If you are preparing a component for removal and want to override the warning that the volumes do not have drawer loss protection, enter this parameter:


serviceAllowedIndicator=forceOnWarning

forceOnWarning sends the request to prepare to remove a component to the controller firmware, and forces the set drawer serviceAllowedIndicator command to proceed.

To turn on or turn off the Service Action Allowed indicator light for the entire high-capacity drive tray, use the set tray serviceAllowedIndicator command.
