Compaq ProLiant DL380 Generation 2 Server Maintenance and Service Guide
System LEDs and Internal Health LED Status Combinations
When the internal health LED on the front panel illuminates either amber or red, the server is
experiencing a health event. Combinations of illuminated system LEDs and the internal health
LED indicate system status (Table 4-9).
IMPORTANT:
For the internal health LED to provide pre-failure and system conditions, the system
management driver must be installed.
The front panel health LEDs indicate only the current hardware status. In some situations,
Compaq Insight Manager XE may report server status differently than the health LEDs because
the software tracks more system attributes.
