1.2System and Partial Failure Analysis Overview

1.2.1Failure Analysis for IP8800/S6700, IP8800/S6600, and IP8800/ S6300

If a failure occurs during operation and the system can be visually and directly checked, follow the procedure in "2.1 Troubleshooting for IP8800/S6700, IP8800/S6600, and IP8800/S6300" to troubleshoot.

The device status is displayed on the basic control unit (BCU) for IP8800/S6700, the control and switching unit (CSU) for IP8800/S6600, and management and switching unit (MSU) for IP8800/S6300. LED display of BCS/CSU/MSU is shown in the "Table 1-1: LED Indications, Switches, and Connectors." Also, Front panel layout is shown in the "Figure 1-1: Example of Front Panel Layout."

For LEDs of optional components other than BCU/CSU/MSU shown as an example (BSU, NIF, power supply, and fan unit) and the layout of front panel other than "Figure 1-1: Example of Front Panel Layout," see the manual "Hardware Installation Guide."

Even though the system cannot be visually and directly checked, troubleshooting can be performed similarly by checking system LEDs using the operation command from the remote operation terminal.
