Rack power and cooling LED indicators (Models 951, 95E)

This section contains rack power and cooling FRUs that have LED indicators. Each listed assembly is shown with a description of its LEDs. Although LED indicators may indicate a failure, they should not be used as a starting point for a repair.

8 Status display (see MAP2340 Codes on the PPS status display) n/a n/a n/a n/a
Notes:
  1. Indicates one of the following:
    • The PPS has detected an internal error in which case the status display  8  should be displaying a code and an open serviceable event should exist.
    • The PPS cannot communicate with the other PPS in the same rack, or the other PPS has an error.
    • During a repair of the failing PPS, the FRU Identify LED  1  is used to determine the failing PPS.
  2. Both customer mainline power inputs to this rack have been lost and the PPSs are using rack battery power to safely shutdown the storage facility.
  3. Indicates one of the following:
    • PPS firmware is being updated.
    • PPS PBCM corruption has occurred (call next level of support).

Note 1: Each power output port is protected by a non-replaceable fuse. If only one output power LED is off, there is a problem with the power distribution unit.

3 Identify or System Attention Amber Normal Attention4
(Rack-1 only)		 Identify4
Notes:
  1. Off under any of the following conditions:
    • Customer power is not present
    • Standby power is present and the Remote Force Power Off is not active
    • The corresponding RPC or PPS is fenced
    • The LED is broken
  2. On solid when PPS DDM power is on.
  3. Flashes slow (1 flash per 2 seconds) when a PPS is in Standby, a PPS is not fenced, or the Remote Force Power Off switch is active. Flashes rapidly (2 flashes per second) during the PPS power ON, power OFF, and Force Power OFF sequences.
  4. This LED is used for the following purposes:
    • For Rack-1 only:

      If the LED is lit solid, it indicates Attention status, which means that one or more open serviceable events needing repair exist.

      When all serviceable events have been closed or cancelled, the LED changes to off.

      When both attention and identify status exist on Rack 1, the identify indication is shown and the LED flashes.

    • For all racks:

      If the LED is flashing, it indicates Identify status, which means the service representative is replacing a part that was selected from a serviceable FRU list or from the Parts Exchange menu option.

      Note: Most, but not all, FRUs have identify indicators. The "light path" identify LEDs are a hierarchy of LEDs that can identify the rack, enclosure, FRU, and even the FRU connector for which a cable is connected.

Notes:
  1. When this LED is on solid, the flash memory in the other RPC card is corrupted.
