Managing an Enclosure
3ware enclosure management features let you view the status of enclosure hardware, such as fans, power supplies, and temperature sensors through 3DM 2, and locate individual hardware components by blinking LEDs associated with them.
For 9690SA RAID controllers, enclosure management features in 3ware software are available for enclosures with expanders that support SCSI Enclosure Services 2 (SES-2).
For 9650SE controllers, enclosure support is CCU-based with SAF-TE (SCSI Accessed Fault Tolerant Enclosure) protocol support.
A list of supported enclosures is available at

Depending on the manufacturer of your enclosure, you may see variations in the features supported by your enclosure from the ones described in this chapter. For details about what features are supported, refer to the documentation for your enclosure.
This chapter describes how to view and locate enclosure-specific hardware. For information about identifying drives in an enclosure, see Locating a Drive by Blinking Its LED.
