Server controls, LEDs, and power
This section describes the controls and light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and how to
turn the server on and off. For the locations of other LEDs on the system board,
see “System-board LEDs” on page 28.
Front view
The following illustration shows the controls, LEDs, and connectors on the front of
the hot-swap server model.
v Rack release latches: Press the latches on each front side of the server to slide it
out of the rack.
v Hard disk drive status LEDs: These LEDs are used on hot-swap SAS or SATA
hard disk drives. When one of these LED are lit, it indicates that the drive has
failed. If an optional IBM ServeRAID controller is installed in the server, when
this LED is flashing slowly (one flash per second), it indicates that the drive is
being rebuilt. When the LED is flashing rapidly (three flashes per second), it
indicates that the controller is identifying the drive.
v Hard disk drive activity LEDs: These LEDs are used on SAS or SATA hard disk
drives. Each hot-swap drive has an activity LED, and when this LED is flashing,
it indicates that the drive is in use.
v CD-RW/DVD eject button (Optional): Press this button to release a DVD or CD
from the CD/DVD drive.
v CD-RW/DVD drive activity LED (Optional): When this LED is lit, it indicates
that the CD-RW/DVD drive is in use.
v Operator information panel: This panel contains controls and LEDs that provide
information about the status of the server. For information about the controls
and LEDs on the operator information panel, see “Operator information panel”
on page 15.
