System-board LEDs

Use the illustration of the LEDs on the system board to identify a light emitting diode (LED).

Remove the blade server from the BladeCenter® unit, open the cover, press the blue button to see any error LEDs that were turned on during error processing. Use Figure 1 to identify the failing component.

If the "Check card below LED" is lit on the PS704 expansion-unit system board, remove the expansion unit and push the blue button on the base-unit system board to view LEDs on the system board of the base unit.

The following figure shows LEDs on the PS703 blade server.
