LCD Status Messages

The LCD messages consist of brief text messages that refer to events recorded

in the System Event Log (SEL). For information on the SEL and configuring

system management settings, see the systems management software

documentation.

NOTE:

If your system fails to boot, press the System ID button for at least five

seconds until an error code appears on the LCD. Record the code, then see "Getting

Help" on page 157.

Viewing Status Messages

If a system error occurs, the LCD screen will turn amber. Press the Select

button to view the list of errors or status messages. Use the left and right

buttons to highlight an error number, and press Select to view the error.

Removing LCD Status Messages

For faults associated with sensors, such as temperature, voltage, fans, and so

on, the LCD message is automatically removed when that sensor returns to a

normal state. For other faults, you must take action to remove the message

from the display:

• Clear the SEL — You can perform this task remotely, but you will lose the

event history for the system.

• Power cycle — Turn off the system and disconnect it from the electrical

outlet; wait for approximately ten seconds, reconnect the power cable, and

restart the system.
