About Your System 25
LCD Status Messages (Optional)
The system's control panel LCD provides status messages to signify when the 
system is operating correctly or when the system needs attention.
The LCD lights blue to indicate a normal operating condition, and lights 
amber to indicate an error condition. The LCD scrolls a message that 
includes a status code followed by descriptive text. The table that follows 
provides a listing of LCD status messages and the probable cause for each 
message. The LCD messages refer to events recorded in the System Event 
Log (SEL). For information on the SEL and configuring system management 
settings, see the systems management software documentation.
  NOTE: If your system fails to boot, press the System ID button for at least five 
seconds until an error code appears on the LCD. Record the code, then see "Getting 
Help" on page 169.
