Light path diagnostics LEDs
This topic provides a table that describes the LEDs on the light path diagnostics
panel.
The following table describes the LEDs on the light path diagnostics panel. If the
information LED or system-error LED on the front of the server is lit, determine
whether any LEDs on the light path diagnostics panel are lit, and then refer to this
table for the suggested action to correct the detected problem.
v Follow the suggested actions in the order in which they are listed in the Action column until the problem is
solved.
v See Chapter 4, “Parts listing, Types 7145, 7146, 7143, and 7191,” on page 81 to determine which components are
customer replaceable units (CRU) and which components are field replaceable units (FRU).
v If an action step is preceded by “(Trained service technician only),” that step must be performed only by a
trained service technician.
