Select the array in the Logical View, then, select either the Array >> Locate pull-down menu option, or Locate from the right-mouse pop-up menu. Result: The Locate Array dialog is displayed. The indicator lights on the drives in the array flash. |

When you have located the array, select OK. Result: The lights will stop flashing. If there are any other Locate operations (Locate Drive, Locate Storage Subsystem) currently running from another storage management station, these lights will also stop flashing.
