Power-on LED: This green LED turns on and stays on when you turn on your server, and it flashes when the server is in Standby mode.

Hard disk drive activity LED: When this green LED is lit, it indicates that the hard disk drive is in use.

Hard disk drive error LED: On some server models, each hot-swap hard disk drive has an error LED. The interpretation of a flashing error LED depends on the SCSI controller connected to the hot-swap drive. When the drive is connected to the integrated SCSI controller with RAID capabilities, a flashing error LED indicates that the drive is a secondary drive in a mirrored pair and the drive is being synchronized.

System-error LED: When this amber LED is lit, it indicates that a system error has occurred.

Information LED: When this amber LED is lit, it indicates that information about a system error has been placed in the system-error log.

SCSI activity LED: When this green LED is lit, it indicates that there is activity on the SCSI bus.
