A simple how-to article providing the steps necessary to locate a failed component on a ZFS Storage Appliance using both the BUI and CLI

BUI

Go to the Maintenance > Hardware screen.
Click the right-arrow icon on the Storage System or Disk Shelf which has the fault icon.
Locate the fault icon in the lists of hardware components, and click it.
The image should be updated to show where that component is physically located.
Optionally, click the locate icon for that component, if the component has it. The LED on the component will begin to flash.

CLI

To turn on the locate LED using the cli, run the following commands

Go to the maintenance hardware context
```
zfssa1:> maintenance hardware
```

List the appliance components

zfssa1:maintenance hardware> list
