• Power off all power supplies.
• Verify that you properly installed the fan tray.
• If the fan tray LED remains unlit, power down the unit and replace the fan tray.

After you supply power to the system, the fans operate at medium speed. The green (online) fan tray, 
RPM, and linecard LEDs are lit and remain lit as long as the system is receiving power and is operational.

When you turn on power supplies and supply power to the chassis, the system performs a series of 
power-on self tests (POSTs). RPM and line-card LEDs blink as the diagnostic programs run. No user 
interaction is required. Observe the process on your console monitor. When the boot process completes, 
the line-card LEDs remain online (green) and the console monitor displays the command line interface 
(CLI) prompt.

Checking LED Status

After you power on the switch, you can check the system, fan, and power status and port activity using 
LEDs on the front panel of RPMs, line cards, power supplies, and fan trays.

NOTE: You can also check system status using CLI 

show

 commands and the Simple Network 

Management Protocol (SNMP). For more information about these options, refer to the 

Dell 

Networking Command Line Reference Guide

 and 

Dell Networking Configuration Guide for the 

C9000 Series

.

When the C9010 successfully powers up or reloads:

• RPM LEDs display system status and management port activity.
• Line-card port LEDs display link status and port activity.
• PSU and fan LEDs display individual PSU and fan operational status.

See 

Installing an RPM

 for the location of RPM LEDs. All other LEDs are displayed in illustrations in this 

section.
