Off = Normal
On = ROM treats system
configuration as invalid
S7 Reserved
S8 Reserved
When the system maintenance switch position 6 is set to the On position, the system is prepared to erase
all system configuration settings from both CMOS and NVRAM.
CAUTION: Clearing CMOS and/or NVRAM deletes configuration information. Be sure to properly
configure the server or data loss could occur.
System LEDs and internal health LED combinations
When the internal health LED on the front panel illuminates either flashing amber or flashing red, the
server is experiencing a health event. Combinations of illuminated system LEDs and the internal health LED
indicate system status.
NOTE: The system management driver must be installed for the internal system health LED to provide pre-
failure and warranty conditions.
The front panel health LEDs indicate only the current hardware status. In some situations, HP SIM may
report server status differently than the health LEDs because the software tracks additional system
attributes.
