Troubleshooting Tools
The HP Integrity BL870c server blade uses LEDs and other tools to help troubleshoot problems that
occur in the server blade.
Front Panel LEDs
The front panel of the server blade contains the unit identifier (UID) LED, server health LED, internal
health LED, and the network interface controller (NIC) LEDs. Figure 37 shows the front panel LED
locations.
Server blades use flashing states (amber or red) on these LEDs to indicate a warning or an error.
There are a total of seven buttons, arranged vertically (when the server blade is installed in the
enclosure).
The BMC controls the server health LED, blade hardware controls the power LED. Both BMC and
iLO 2 MP code determine the state of the health LED.

Table 14 details the functions of the front panel LEDs.
