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 Ta ble 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 Figure2-23. Ta ble 2- 10 describes the meaning of the embedded Ethernet port status
LEDs on the systems.
