Server controls and indicators
This section identifies the controls and indicators on the front of your server.
CD-ROM eject button: Press this button to release a CD from the drive.
CD-ROM drive activity light: When this light is on, it indicates that the CD-ROM
drive is in use.
Diskette-eject button: Press this button to release a diskette from the drive.
Diskette-drive activity light: When this light is on, it indicates that the diskette drive
is in use.
SCSI activity light: When this green light is flashing, the controller is accessing a SCSI
device; for example, a hard disk drive.
Note: Hot-swap hard disk drives also have an activity light. This light is also known
as the SCSI hard disk drive activity light.
If your server has a ServeRAID™ controller and this light flashes slowly (one flash per
second), the drive is being rebuilt. When the light flashes rapidly (three flashes per
second), the controller is identifying the drive.
Power-on light: When this green light is on, system power is present in the server.
Power-control button: Press this button to manually turn the server on or off.
System error light: When this amber light is on, it indicates that a system error has
occurred. An amber error light on the interior of the server, adjacent to the faulty
component, will also be on to further isolate the error. (For more information, see
“Chapter 6. Solving problems,” on page 73.)
