LCD Status Messages

The following LCD messages refer to events recorded in the System Event

Log (SEL). (The messages are shown here in "simple" text format.) 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 361.

Viewing Status Messages

If a system error code occurs, the LCD screen turns amber. Press the center

(selection) button to view the list of errors or status messages. Use the arrow

keys to highlight an error number, and press the center button 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 LCD display:

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

event history for the system.

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

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

restart the system.

To resolve the problem, refer to the corrective actions in the following table.
