System-board LEDs
The following illustration shows the light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on the system
board.
Note: Error LEDs remain lit only while the server is connected to power. If you
disconnect power to the server, you can press and hold the light path diagnostics
button to light the error LEDs on the system board.
