You can specify the location code of any indicator to view or modify its current state. If you provide the
wrong location code, the ASMI attempts to go to the next higher level of the location code.
The next level is the base-level location code for that field replaceable unit (FRU). For example, a user
types the location code for the FRU located on the second memory module slot of the third enclosure in
the system. If the location code for the second memory module slot is incorrect (the FRU does not exist at
this location), an attempt to set the indicator for the third enclosure is initiated. This process continues
until a FRU is located or no other level is available.
To complete this operation, your authority level must be one of the following levels:

Authorized service provider
To change the current state of an indicator, complete the following steps:
1.
On the ASMI Welcome pane, specify your user ID and password, and click Log In.
2.
In the navigation area, expand System Configuration > Service Indicators > Indicators by Location
code
.
3.
In the Location code field, type the location code of the FRU and click Continue.
4.
From the Identify indicator status list, select Identify.
5.
Click Save settings.
Activating the identify LED by using the ASMI when you do not know the location
code
Learn how to activate the identify LED by using the Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI)
when you do not know the location code.
You can turn on the identify indicators in each enclosure.
To complete this operation, your authority level must be one of the following levels:
v

Authorized service provider
To enable the enclosure indicator states, complete the following steps:
1.
On the ASMI Welcome pane, specify your user ID and password, and click Log In.
2.
In the navigation area, expand System Configuration > Service Indicators > Enclosure Indicators.
All servers and enclosures managed by the ASMI will display.
3.
Select the server or enclosure with the part that needs to be replaced and click Continue. The location
code identifiers are listed.
4.
Select the location code identifier and select Identify.
5.
To save the changes made to the state of one or more FRU indicators, click Save settings.
Identifying a part by using the HMC
You can use the following procedures to activate light-emitting diodes (LEDs) by using the Hardware
Management Console (HMC).
You can use the identify LED for a FRU associated with a specified enclosure to help you identify a part.
For example, if you want to hook up a cable to a specific I/O adapter, you can activate the LED for the
adapter, which is a field replaceable unit (FRU). Then, you can physically check to see where you should
hook up the cable. This action is especially useful when you have several adapters with open ports.

Choose one of the following navigation options depending on the interface type of the HMC:

If you are using an HMC Classic or HMC Enhanced interface, complete the following steps:
