- Power-control button and power-on LED: Press this button
to turn the server on and off manually. The states of the power-on
LED are as follows:
- Off: Power is not present or the power supply, or the
LED itself has failed.
- Flashing rapidly (4 times per second): The server is turned
off and is not ready to be turned on. The power-control button is
disabled. This will last approximately 5 to 10 seconds.
- Flashing slowly (once per second): The server is turned
off and is ready to be turned on. You can press the power-control
button to turn on the server.
- Lit: The server is turned on.
- Ethernet activity LEDs: When any of these LEDs is lit,
they indicate that the server is transmitting to or receiving signals
from the Ethernet LAN that is connected to the Ethernet port that
corresponds to that LED.
- System-locator button/LED: Use this blue LED to visually
locate the server among other servers. A system-locator LED is also
on the rear of the server. This LED is used as a presence detection
button as well. You can use Systems Director or IMM web interface
to light this LED remotely. This LED is controlled by the IMM. The
locator button is pressed to visually locate the server among the
others servers.
- Check log LED: When this yellow LED is lit, it indicates
that a system error has occurred. Check the event log for additional
information. See Event logs for more information about event logs.
- System-error LED: When this yellow LED is lit, it indicates
that a system error has occurred. A system-error LED is also on the
rear of the server. An LED on the light path diagnostics panel on
the operator information panel or on the system board is also lit
to help isolate the error. This LED is controlled by the IMM.
Note:
- Depending on the type of operator information panel installed
in your server, the Reset button is on the operator information
panel or the light path diagnostics panel.
- You don't have to pull out the operator information panel to obtain
more information if there's no release latch existed in your server
model.
