LED Indicators
The StorPoint CD front panel indicators show the status of the unit. The indicators have the
following functions:
Status - Flashes during startup. The light turns solid green when the StorPoint CD is ready for use.
SCSI/Drive - Flashes to indicate disc access. Green when reading from a drive and amber when
writing to hard disk when caching.
Network - Flashes to indicate the presence of network traffic. Green on a 100 Mbit network,
amber on a 10 Mbit network and red when there is no link.
Power - Remains on to indicate that power is present in the unit.
Network Connector - The StorPoint CD is equipped with a 100baseTX connector and will
automatically adjust to 10baseT or 100baseTX, full or half duplex mode. Use a Category 5 UTP
cable for the 100baseTX operation.
Note:
SCSI Connector - The StorPoint CD has a SCSI connector for connecting disc drives, changers,
hard disks and LUN expanders. The dual SCSI version is equipped with two SCSI connectors.
Push Button - Used for restoring the StorPoint CD parameters to the factory default settings. For
a more detailed description, see “Restoring Factory Default Settings ” on page 41.
Serial Number - Ethernet Address - The Ethernet address is the same as the StorPoint CD serial
number. You will find these labels at the underside of the server unit and at the back of the tower.
When the StorPoint CD has been installed in a tower, the network connector is found on the
network connection board that appears at the back of the tower. Note that the network
connection board must be used, i.e. the server cannot be attached directly to the network.
