IBM DS4000 FC manual FC 4Gbps PCI-X Adapter activity, Yellow LED, Green LED, Amber LED, Activity

Table 3 describes the yellow, green, and amber light emitting diodes (LEDs) and the activity of the FC 4Gbps PCI-X Adapter. For more information about the FC 4Gbps PCI-X Adapter LED activity, see the IBM System Storage DS4000 Problem Determination Guide.

Table 3. FC 4Gbps PCI-X Adapter activity

Yellow LED	Green LED	Amber LED	Activity	Description
Off	Off	Off	Power off	The server adapter is not receiving
				power. The server is powered off.
On	On	On	Power on (before	The FC 4Gbps PCI-X Adapter is
			firmware initialization)	receiving power from the PCI or
				PCI-X slot but is not initialized by
				the adapter firmware.
Flashing	Flashing	Flashing	Power on (after	The FC 4Gbps PCI-X Adapter is
			firmware initialization)	successfully initialized by the
				adapter firmware and is in a ready
				state. The adapter firmware is
				initialized when the adapter BIOS
				code is loaded, Ctrl-Q is pressed, or
				the operating system driver is
				loaded.
Flashing	Flashing	Flashing	Firmware error	The FC 4Gbps PCI-X Adapter
alternately	alternately	alternately		firmware has detected an
				unrecoverable error condition.
Off	Off	On/Flashing	Online	1Gbps link / I/O activity
Off	On/Flashing	Off	Online	2Gbps link / I/O activity
On/Flashing	Off	Off	Online	4Gbps link / I/O activity
Flashing	Off	Flashing	Beacon	The adapter is responding to a
				Beacon command from an HBA
				management program.
