Complete this task to locate and repair a resource using the LED
indicators that are located throughout the enclosure.
You can use these steps to follow LED indicators from the beginning
to the end of a service action. You do not need to access the DS Storage Manager
to replace a resource that has a solid amber error light.
- Find the amber system alert light on the front display panel of
the server enclosure.
- Determine where the fault is located and perform one of the following
actions:
- If the fault on opposite side indicator is lit on the front display panel,
move to the rear of the server.
- If the fault in external enclosure indicator is lit on the front display
panel, use the location indicators and the Identify button
on the rear operator panel to find the enclosure that is connected to the
server with a solid amber system alert light.
- If the system alert indicator is lit and no other lights or indicators
are lit on the front display panel, the fault is on a resource that is found
on the front of the enclosure. Continue to step 3.
- Find the resource with a solid amber error indicator.
- Order a new resource to replace the one with the fault.
- Remove the resource.
Attention: Review the
remove and replace procedures for a resource before removing it. You must
replace some resources within a specific time limit. In some cases, if you
remove a resource without immediately replacing it, you must place a blank
version of the resource in the empty slot to prevent overheating of the storage
unit.
- Replace the resource. The system automatically senses
the new resource and begins the procedure to resume normal operation for that
resource.
- Determine if you need to perform further repair actions.
- If the system alert indicator is no longer lit, you have successfully
replaced all required resources. The error entry in the system log closes
and the storage unit resumes normal operation. You do not need to take any
further action.
- If, after you replace the resource, the system alert indicator is still
lit, you must replace another resource. Repeat these steps to identify and
replace the next resource.
