Light path diagnostics panel
You can use the light path diagnostics to diagnose system errors quickly. When an LED is lit
on the light path diagnostics panel, it helps you to isolate the error. The server is designed so
that LEDs remain lit when the server is connected to an ac power source but is not turned on,
provided that the power supply operates correctly. This feature helps you to isolate the
problem when the OS is shut down.
