  1. Select the desired controller icon in the main window.
  2. Choose Array Administration > Controller Maintenance.
  3. If you are not already logged in as ssconfig, a password prompt is displayed; type your ssconfig password.
  4. The Controller Maintenance Options window is displayed.

  5. Click Mute Controller Beeper.

    or

  1. Select the desired controller icon in the main window.
  2. Choose Configuration > Custom Configure.
  3. Select Change Controller Parameters.

NOTE: If the alarm is caused by a failed component, muting the beeper has no effect. You need to push the Reset button on the right ear of the array. See View Enclosure for more information about component failure alarms.
