LFF power switch module LEDs and button
Ite Description Status
m
1 UID button/LED* Solid blue = Activated
Flashing blue:
1 Hz/cycle per sec =
Remote management or
firmware upgrade in
progress
4 Hz/cycle per sec = iLO
manual reboot sequence
initiated
8 Hz/cycle per sec = iLO
manual reboot sequence in
progress
Off = Deactivated
2 NIC status LED* Solid green = Link to network
Flashing green (1 Hz/cycle per sec)
= Network active
Ite Description Status
m
Off = No network activity
3 Health LED* Solid green = Normal
Flashing green (1 Hz/cycle per sec)
= iLO is rebooting
Flashing amber = System degraded
Flashing red (1 Hz/cycle per sec) =
System critical**
4 Power On/Standby Solid green = System on
button and system
Flashing green (1 Hz/cycle per sec)
power LED*
= Performing power on sequence
Solid amber = System in standby
Off = No power present†
*When all four LEDs described in this table flash simultaneously, a
power fault has occurred. For more information, see "Power fault
LEDs."
**If the health LED indicates a degraded or critical state, review the
system IML or use iLO to review the system health status.
†Facility power is not present, power cord is not attached, no power
supplies are installed, power supply failure has occurred, or the power
button cable is disconnected.
Front panel LED power fault codes
The following table provides a list of power fault codes, and the subsystems
that are affected. Not all power faults are used by all servers.
Subsystem LED behavior
System board 1 flash
Subsystem LED behavior
Processor 2 flashes
Memory 3 flashes
Riser board PCIe slots 4 flashes
FlexibleLOM 5 flashes
Storage controllers 6 flashes
System board PCIe slots 7 flashes
Power backplane or storage backplane 8 flashes
Power supply 9 flashes
Systems Insight Display LEDs
The Systems Insight Display LEDs represent the system board layout.
The display enables diagnosis with the access panel installed.
Description Status
Processor LEDs Off = Normal
Amber = Failed processor
DIMM LEDs Off = Normal
Amber = Failed DIMM or configuration issue
Fan LEDs Off = Normal
Amber = Failed fan or missing fan
NIC LEDs1 Off = No link to network
Solid green = Network link
Flashing green = Network link with activity
If power is off, the front panel LED is not active. For
status, see Rear panel LEDs.
Power supply Off = Normal
LEDs
Solid amber = Power subsystem degraded, power
supply failure, or input power lost.
PCI riser LED Off = Normal
Description Status
Amber = Incorrectly installed PCI riser cage
Over temp LED Off = Normal
Amber = High system temperature detected
Amp Status Off = AMP modes disabled
LED
Solid green = AMP mode enabled
Solid amber = Failover
Flashing amber = Invalid configuration
Power cap LED Off = System is in standby, or no cap is set.
Solid green = Power cap applied

For Networking Choice server models, the embedded NIC ports are
not equipped on the server. Therefore, the NIC LEDs on the Systems
Insight Display will flash based on the FlexibleLOM network port
activity. In the case of a dual-port FlexibleLOM, only NIC LED 1 and 2
will illuminate to correspond with the activity of the respective
network ports.
When the health LED on the front panel illuminates either amber or
red, the server is experiencing a health event. For more information
on the combination of these LEDs, see Systems Insight Display
combined LED descriptions).

LED and color LED
Processor Red Amber One or more of the following
(amber) conditions might exist:
Processor in socket X
has failed.
Processor X is not
installed in the
socket.
Processor X is
unsupported.
ROM detects a failed
processor during
POST.
Processor Amber Green Processor in socket X is in a pre-
(amber) failure condition.
DIMM (amber) Red Green One or more DIMMs have failed.
DIMM (amber) Amber Green DIMM in slot X is in a pre-failure
condition.
Over temp Amber Green The Health Driver has detected a
(amber) cautionary temperature level.
Over temp Red Amber The server has detected a
(amber) hardware critical temperature
level.
PCI riser (amber) Red Green The PCI riser cage is not seated
properly.
Fan (amber) Amber Green One fan has failed or has been
removed.
Fan (amber) Red Green Two or more fans have failed or
been removed.

Power supply Red Amber One or more of the following
(amber) conditions might exist:
Only one power
supply is installed and
that power supply is
in standby.
Power supply fault.
System board fault.
Power supply Amber Green One or more of the following
(amber) conditions might exist:
Redundant power
supply is installed and
only one power
supply is functional.
AC power cord is not
plugged into
redundant power

Power cap (off) — Amber Standby.
Power cap — Flashing Waiting for power.

IMPORTANT: If more than one DIMM slot LED is illuminated, further
troubleshooting is required. Test each bank of DIMMs by removing all
other DIMMs. Isolate the failed DIMM by replacing each DIMM in a bank with
a known working DIMM.
