Blinking or unblinking component LEDs
You can locate a physical disk, virtual disk drive and PCIe SSDs within an enclosure by blinking one of the Light Emitting Diodes

You must have Login privilege to blink or unblink an LED.
The controller must be real-time configuration capable. The real-time support of this feature is available only in PERC 9.1 firmware
