Virtual Front Panel LEDs in the iLO 3 TUI

iLO 3 has no LED that equates to the Blade Health LED located on the front panel of each individual BL860c i4 Server Blade. The Blade Health LED represents the health of the individual server blade. The virtual LEDs in the iLO 3 GUI and TUI reflect system/partition health. The closest equivalency to the Blade Health LED is a field called Bay [x] Health on the System Health page of the iLO 3 GUI.

The VFP, located in the iLO 3 TUI directly off the MP MAIN MENU, is a textual representation of the system/partition state as well as the system’s status with respect to where it is in the boot process (running non-OS code, etc).

The following virtual LEDs are located in the VFP:

HEALTH

SYSTEM

LOCATOR
