Troubleshooting

The following table describes the power-supply status conditions that the LEDs indicate.

Off1

Off1

The power supply has shut down. This

 

 

occurs when the voltage is too high,

 

 

when a fan fails, or when the power

 

 

supply becomes too hot.

 

 

 

On

Off

The voltage to the power supply is low.

 

 

Because the power supply can meet the

 

 

present system requirements, the power

 

 

supply continues to run.

 

 

 

Off

On

The power supply has failed. The

 

 

present system power requirements are

 

 

too low to cause the power supply to

 

 

shut itself down.

 

 

 

On

On

The supply is on and OK.

 

 

 

Notes:

1.The Power-on indicator on the front of the server is not lit.

2.The Power fail indicator on the front of the server illuminates when either power supply LED is not lit.

Hot-swap Drive Status Indicators

You can use the status LEDs above each of the hot-swap drive bays to obtain status information for the drive in the bay.

ŸPower On LED (Left Green LED): A SCSI drive is present in the bay, and the power is on.

ŸDrive In-Use LED (Center Green LED): The server is writing to or reading from the hard disk.

ŸDrive Fault LED (Amber LED): The SCSI drive is faulty. In a disk-array model, this amber LED blinks when the drive is part of a disk array and is being rebuilt.
