Interpreting LED activity

You can monitor switch activity and status by checking the switch LEDs.
There are three possible LED states: no light, a steady light, or a flashing light. The steady lights and

flashing lights can be green or amber.
The LEDs flash any of these colors during boot, POST, or other diagnostic tests. This is normal and

does not indicate a problem unless the LEDs do not indicate a healthy state after all boot processes

and diagnostic tests are complete. A healthy state is indicated by a steady green light. See

Table 11

for details about LED activity.

LED indicators

All the LEDs are located on the port side. See

Figure 8

Identifying LEDs

These LEDs are controlled by the OA and are used to indicate certain types of errors. The OA

interface should be used to display all errors. See the HP BladeSystem Onboard Administrator user

guide for information about the OA interface.
