General Description 2-7

STATUS Lamp

The STATUS lamp stays lit in green when the modular server is in successful operation. When the STATUS lamp is lit or blinking in amber, it indicates that the system has failed.

In addition, you can view the detailed information on error message on virtual LCD when the STATUS lamp is lit or blinking in amber. You can use the virtual LCD through the Web browser of EXPRESSSCOPE engine (BMC) or NEC ESMPRO Manager.

See Chapter 7 for indications of the STATUS lamp and virtual LCD, descriptions, and actions to take.

NOTE: If the modular server has the NEC ESMPRO installed, you can view the System Event Log (SEL) to identify the cause of a trouble.

UID (Unit ID) Lamp

Pressing the ID switch brings the lamp to light, and pressing again brings the lamp to go off. The ID lamp is intended to identify a specific modular server in the system in which more than one modular server is installed. Making this lamp being lit can help the maintenance work to identify the faulty device.

If you press the ID switch, the lamp goes on. When the recognize command is received from management software such as NEC ESMPRO Manager, the lamp blinks.
