Using the Maintenance Web Interface, test the LEDs on the front of the media server:
1Under Diagnostics, click Test Server LEDs.
2On the Test Server LEDs screen, click Test LE Ds.
3Observe the Active/Standby and U2 LEDs on your media server and the transmit LED on your
duplication card (back of media server) to ensure they are blinking.
Interpreting the test results
An abnormal condition is indicated if an LED shows any of the following flashing patterns.
LED flashes red. This indicates that the green element is either burned out or not controlled.
LED flashes green. This indicates that the red element is either burned out or not controlled.
LED flashes between red and amber. This indicates that the red element is stuck on.
LED flashes between green and amber. This indicates that the green element is stuck on.
LED stays amber continuously. This indicates that either the media server is hung or the LED
controller is stuck.
LED stays off continuously. This indicates that the media server is hung or powered off, the
controller is stuck, or the media server is using a new or different LED controller.
If the media server is hung, you do not need to do anything. It should automatically reboot and fix itself.
If the media server does not reboot itself, power it down and then reboot it.
If an LED is clearly stuck or has a burned out element, ignore the indicators until you can conveniently
replace the media server.
LEDs on the back of the media server
There are two sets of LEDs on the back of the media server: one set for the 4-port NIC card and one set
for the fiber optic cable used for memory shadowing. The GREEN LEDs to the right of the NIC ports
light up when they are in use. The GREEN LEDs to the right of the fiber optic cable indicate that the
cables are connected correctly.
