Checking Status LEDs

Examine the status LED for each PCI slot of the system to verify that the slots are functioning normally. For more information about interpreting PCI slot status LEDs, see the operation and maintenance guide for your system, as listed in Table 1-2.

If the PCI slots are functioning normally, examine the status LEDs on the individual Ethernet PCI adapters.

The rear of each CPU- I O enclosure has two connector ports for the embedded 10/100/1000 Ethernet PCI adapter. Each connector port has two status LEDs, shown in Figure 2-23. Table 2-10describes the meaning of the embedded Ethernet port status LEDs on the systems.
