Drive
indicator
The indicator turns solid amber if
there is a drive error.
• Check the System Event Log to determine if the drive has an error.
• Run the appropriate Online Diagnostics test. Restart the system and
run embedded diagnostics (ePSA).
• If the drives are configured in a RAID array, restart the system, and
enter the host adapter configuration utility program.
Temperature
indicator
The indicator turns solid amber if
the system experiences a thermal
error (for example, the ambient
temperature is out of range or
there is a fan failure).
Ensure that none of the following conditions exist:
• A cooling fan has been removed or has failed.
• System cover, air shroud, memory module blank, or back filler bracket
is removed.
• Ambient temperature is too high.
• External airflow is obstructed.
If the problem persists, see Getting help.
Electrical
indicator
The indicator turns solid amber if
the system experiences an
electrical error (for example,
voltage out of range, or a failed
power supply unit (PSU) or
voltage regulator).
Check the System Event Log or system messages for the specific issue. If
it is due to a problem with the PSU, check the LED on the PSU. Reseat the
PSU.
If the problem persists, see Getting help.
