Using the NSS3000 LCD Panel

The LCD panel on the front of the chassis let you view various aspects of the system such as the status of the configured RAIDs, volumes, the status of the bootup, and so on. To see the available options, press the Display button. Each time you press the Display button, the next screen appears. Subsequent pages appear after a few seconds and continue to automatically scroll through the pages until you press the Display button again.

NOTE Because of the screen space limitations within many of the available screens, the information appears on multiple pages. For example, the Home screen has two pages (page 1 shows the hostname and IP, and the second page shows the hostname and netmask).

The LCD panel displays these screen options:

Bootup Screen: During the bootup of the NSS, the LCD panel displays its progress.

Home Screen: Displays the current hostname, IP address, and netmask of the system.

System Alerts: Displays the system alerts (two per page) in order from most recent to the oldest. (For details about the system alerts, refer to the System Alerts section on the System Status page.)

RAID Status: Displays details for the configured RAID arrays in the system. You can view the type of the RAID array (J=JBOD, 0,1,5,10), the state of the RAID (i.e., clean, degraded, rebuild, failed, and stopped), and the percentage complete of the RAID rebuild (if currently in progress).

Volume Status: Displays the configured volumes and the percentage of space used. Each volume appears with the RAID on which it is configured followed by the volume name. For example, A:volB (which indicates that Volume B is located on RAID A).

Cable Diagnostics: Displays the status of the Ethernet cable If the link is working properly, the link status appears as OK. If there is a problem with the link, the status is reported according to the pairs within the cable. These messages can appear:
