Deactivate a system attention LED or partition LED using the HMC

You can deactivate a system attention LED or a logical partition LED. For example, you might determine that a problem is not a high priority and decide to repair the problem at a later time. However, you want to be alerted if another problem occurs, so you must deactivate the system attention LED so that it can be activated again if another problem occurs.

1. In the navigation area, open Systems management.
2. Select the server you are working on by checking the box next to its name.
3. Open Operations.
4. Open LED Status.
5. Select View System Attention. The system attention LED window opens. The selected system and its LED state are displayed in the upper part of the window. The logical partition and its LED state are displayed in the lower part of the window. From the system attention LED window, you can deactivate both the system attention LED and the logical partition LED.
6. Select Deactivate System Attention LED from the Action menu. A confirmation window is displayed that provides the following information:
   • A verification that the system attention LED was deactivated.
   • An indication that there still might be open problems within the system.
   • An indication that you cannot activate the system attention LED.
7. Select one of the logical partitions in the lower table, and select Deactivate partition LED from the Partition Operations menu. A confirmation window is displayed that provides the following information:
