Item LED 0 LED 1 LED 2 LED3 Details
Processor Socket 0 Socket 1 Socket 2 Socket 3 If the System LED (on front panel) is in the
attention or fault state and the processor LED is on,
then the processor or voltage regulator has
failed—the processor module in the specified
socket needs to be replaced.
If the thermal LED is in the warning or critical
state and the processor LED is on, then the
processor exceeded the warning or critical level.

If all the LEDs for a rank (0-7) are lit and the
memory config error LED is lit, then the DIMMs
in the specified rank are mismatched—replace
mismatched DIMM.
