STATUS Lamp
The STATUS lamp stays lit in green when the CPU blade is in successful operation. When the
STATUS lamp is flashing in amber or red, it indicates that the system has failed.
In addition, you can view the detailed information on error message on virtual LCD when the
STATUS lamp is flashing in amber or red.
You can use the virtual LCD through the Web browser of EXPRESSSCOPE engine (BMC) or NEC
ESMPRO Manager.
The following table lists indications of the STATUS lamp, descriptions, and actions to take.
If an error occurs, contact your service representative.
NOTE: If the CPU blade has the NEC ESMPRO installed, you can
view the System Event Log (SEL) to identify the cause of a trouble.
