Identifying Problems Using Status LEDs
LED Diagnostics
The diagnostics | built | into your | Netfinity | 5000 | server | allow | you | to quickly | |||||
type | of system | error | that | occurred. When | the System | Error | LED | on | the | ||||
LED panel is illuminated, use | the | following | information | to | isolate | the | pro | ||||||
error | message usually | appears on | the display monitor | as | well. |
|
|
ŸIf the System Error LED on the information LED panel on the front of
Netfinity | 5000 | server is | on, | a | system | error was detected. Check the | |||||||||||||||||||
the power supplies and at any | Ethernet | adapters, | then | open | the | cov | |||||||||||||||||||
check to see which of the LEDs on | the system board inside the Ne | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
server are on. (See “System Board LEDs” | on | page 168 | for |
