LED Symbols and General Behavior

TABLE A-1 LED Symbols and Description
LED | Symbol | Location (Modules) | Function
--- | --- | --- | ---
Power |  | Power-fan Interconnect-battery | On--The controller has power. Off--The controller does not have power. Note - The controller modules do not have a Power LED. They receive their power from the power supplies inside the power-fan modules.
Battery Fault |  | Battery | On--The battery is missing or has failed. Off--The battery is operating normally. Blinking--The battery is charging.
Service Action Allowed |  | Drive Power-fan Controller Battery | On--You can remove the module safely. See About Service Action Allowed LEDs.
Service Action Required (Fault) |  | Drive | On--When the drive tray LED is on, the cable is attached and at least one lane has a link up status, but at least one lane has a link down status. Off--One of the following conditions exists: No cable is attached. A cable is attached, and all lanes have a link up status. A cable is attached, and all lanes have a link down status.
Service Action Required (Fault) |  | Controller Power-fan module | On--The controller or the power-fan module needs attention. Off--The controller and the power-fan module are operating normally.
Locate |  | Front frame | On--Assists in locating the tray.
Cache Active |  | Controller | The activity of the cache is indicated: On--Data is in the cache. Off--No data is in the cache.
Controller Tray Over-Temperature |  | Front bezel on the controller tray | On--The temperature of the tray has reached an unsafe condition. Off--The temperature of the tray is within operational range.
Standby Power |  | Front bezel on the controller tray | On--The controller tray is in standby mode and the main DC power is off. Off--The controller tray is not in standby mode and the main DC power is on.
7-Segment ID Diagnostic Display |  | Controller | The tray ID or a diagnostic code is indicated (see Controller Tray Diagnostic Code Sequences). For example, if some of the cache memory dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs) are missing in a controller, error code L8 appears in the diagnostic display (see Controller Tray Lock-Down Codes).
AC power |  | Power-fan module Note - The LED is directly above or below the AC power switch and the AC power connector. | Indicates that the power supply is receiving DC power input.
DC power |  | Power-fan module Note - The LED is directly above or below the DC power switch and the DC power connector. | Indicates that the power supply is receiving DC power input.
Ethernet Speed and Ethernet Activity |  | Controller | The speed of the Ethernet ports and whether a link has been established are indicated: Left LED On--1-Gb/s speed. Left LED Off--100BASE-T or 10BASE-T speed. Right LED On--A link is established. Right LED Off--No link exists. Right LED blinking--Activity is occurring

The location and function is described for these LEDs: Power, Battery Fault, Service Action Allowed, Service Action Required (Fault), Locate, Cache Active, Controller Tray Over-Temperature, Standby Power, Seven-Segment ID Diagnostic Display, AC power LED, DC power LED, and Ethernet Speed and Ethernet Activity LED.

### About Service Action Allowed LEDs

- Each controller module, power-fan module, and battery module has a Service Action Allowed LED. The Service Action Allowed LED lets you know when you can remove a module safely.

| Caution - Possible loss of data access--Never remove a controller module, a power-fan module, or a battery module unless the appropriate Service Action Allowed LED is on.

- If a controller module or a power-fan module fails and must be replaced, the Service Action Required (Fault) LED on that module comes on to indicate that service action is required. The Service Action Allowed LED also comes on if it is safe to remove the module. If data availability dependencies exist or other conditions that dictate a module should not be removed, the Service Action Allowed LED stays off.

- The Service Action Allowed LED automatically comes on or goes off as conditions change. In most cases, the Service Action Allowed LED comes on when the Service Action Required (Fault) LED comes on for a module.

Note - If the Service Action Required (Fault) LED comes on but the Service Action Allowed LED is off for a particular module, you might need to service another module first. Check Service Advisor to determine the action that you should take.

### Expansion Tray 7-Segment Display

- During normal operation, the tray ID display on each IOM displays the expansion tray ID. The Diagnostic LED (lower-digit decimal point) comes on when the display is used for diagnostic codes and goes off when the display is used to show the tray ID.

- If a power-on or reset occurs, the Diagnostic LED, the Heartbeat LED (upper-digit decimal point), and all seven segments of both digits come on. The Diagnostic LED remains on until the expansion tray ID appears.
