Monitoring the Server
The servers provide many ways to monitor system activity and faulty behavior, including LEDs,
Oracle ILOM, and POST. Log files, including system console activity, are maintained by Oracle
Solaris and Oracle ILOM. For specific information about LEDs, fault reports, and log files,
refer to the topics on detecting and managing faults in the service manual for the server.
Note - You can use Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center to monitor this server along with
other servers and assets. For more information, see “Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center
Overview” on page 16.
When a problem is detected on a server, you can use the Locator button and LED to identify the
server that needs service attention at its physical location.

Turn On the Locator LED
When a server must be serviced, lighting the server Locator LED assists in easily identifying
the correct server. You do not need administrator permissions to use the set /System
locator_indicator and show /System locator_indicator commands.
