The
Identify
subtask
is
used
to
identify
the
physical
location
of
a
device
or
an
empty
position
in
the
RAID
enclosure.
This
subtask
lists
all
channel/IDs
of
the
RAID
and
the
status
of
the
devices
that
are
connected
to
the
RAID
enclosure.
If
a
device
is
attached
to
the
selected
channel/ID,
the
check
light
on
the
device
will
begin
to
flash.
If
the
channel/ID
does
not
have
a
device
attached,
the
light
associated
with
the
empty
position
on
the
enclosure
will
begin
to
flash.
The
Remove
subtask
is
used
to
put
the
RAID
hot-plug
device
in
a
state
where
it
can
be
removed
or
replaced.
This
subtask
lists
all
channel/IDs
of
the
RAID
adapter
that
have
devices
that
can
be
removed.
Only
devices
with
a
status
of
Failed
,
Spare
,
Warning
,
or
Non
Existent
can
be
removed.
A
device’s
status
can
be
changed
with
the
AIX
smitty
pdam
command.
After
a
device
is
selected
for
removal,
the
check
light
on
the
device
will
begin
to
flash,
indicating
that
you
may
physically
remove
that
device.
Standalone
Diagnostics
has
restrictions
on
using
the
RAID
Hot-Plug
Manager:
v
Devices
being
used
as
replacement
devices
must
be
exactly
the
same
type
of
device
as
the
device
being
replaced.
v
New
devices
may
not
be
added
unless
a
device
of
the
same
FRU
part
number
already
exists
in
the
system
because
the
configuration
information
for
the
new
device
is
not
known
after
the
Standalone
Diagnostics
are
booted.
You

Identify
and
Remove
Resource
Task
This
is
the
original
task
that
supported
hot-plug
SCSI
devices,
which
has
since
been
replaced
(after
AIX
4.3.3)
with
the
“Hot-Plug
Task”
on
page
94.
This
task
is
only
supported
on
hot-pluggable
SCSI
devices,
although
the
resource
list
may
show
non-hot-plug
devices.
The
service
aid
lists
any
SCSI
enclosure
services
(SES)
device
installed
in
the
system,
and
the
slots
within
the
SES.
If
the
slot
is
populated,
the
service
aid
will
show
the
name
of
the
device
in
the
slot,
as
well
as
its
location
code.
To
do
an
operation
on
a
slot,
select
the
slot
and
press
Enter.
A
menu
displays
with
the
following
options:
v

.
This
selection
sets
the
removal
indication
and
prepares
the
device
for
removal
from
the
SES.
v

.
This
selection
sets
the
