Identifying a part

Use these instructions to learn how to identify the location of a failed part, the location of a part to be removed, or the location to install a new part on your system or expansion unit using the appropriate method for your system.

For IBM Power Systems servers that contain the POWER7 processor, the light-emitting diodes (LEDs) can be used to identify or verify the location of a part that you are removing, servicing, or installing.

The fault (amber) LED indicates an error and corresponds to the location code in the system reference code (SRC). The LED is activated and deactivated automatically.

If you need to use the identify function, use the following procedures.

Control panel LEDs
