Re: How to find the disk that crashed on the disk trays??
Now you can follow the cable ...
But I prefer to turn the activity LED on for the *good* disk (using "dd"), so you know you need to pull the other disk ...
Hope this helps!
Regards
Torsten.

SolutionFrom vgdisplay get the device file of the *good* disk, then do
# dd if=/dev/rdsk/c1t1d0 of=/dev/null
where c1t1d0 is the GOOD disk.
You will see the activity LED steady on.
I assume you already know the slot of your bad disk - so now you know the bad disk.
Hope this helps!

Torsten.
