status
• Blinks once per second — Normal operation.
• Solid ON — Not operational.
• Solid OFF — Not operational (or blade is booting).
• Solid ON for 3 seconds, then blinks twice (FC I/O blade only) — Blade
firmware is downloading.
• Blinks 10 times per second (FC I/O blade only) — Identify mode.
Amber Health status • Solid OFF — Normal operation.
• Blinks once per second (LCB only) — Library application code is not
operating, or firmware upgrade/downgrade is in progress on existing
compact flash.
• Solid ON —
• LCB — Failure, or blade is booting up, or initial firmware update on
new compact flash. If solid ON for more than 10 minutes, the LCB
may need to be replaced.
• FC I/O Blade — Failure, or blade is booting up, or blade firmware is
autoleveling.
• FC I/O Fan Blade — There may be one or more problems, including:
fan speed is too high or too low; temperature is too high; there is a
faulty fan speed sensor; or there is a power control problem.
Note: In most cases, solid ON means a failure; however, in
conjunction with the blue LED blinking once every 10 seconds, an
amber LED solid ON can be a normal condition for a short period of
time. Autoleveling takes about three minutes per blade, and blades
autolevel in series.
Never remove a blade when the amber LED is solid ON, unless it
has been on continuously for at least 10 minutes.
Never remove an LCB while the library is powered on.
