Convention
Power Indicator
Pattern
Condition
A
Green
A valid power source is connected to the PSU and the PSU is
operational.
B
Flashing green
When the PSU firmware is being updated, the PSU handle flashes
green.
CAUTION: Do not disconnect the power cord or unplug the
PSU when updating firmware. If firmware update is
interrupted, the PSUs will not function. You must roll back the
PSU firmware by using Dell Lifecycle Controller. For more
information, see Dell Lifecycle Controller User’s Guide at
Dell.com/idracmanuals.
C
Flashing green
and turns off
When hot-adding a PSU, the PSU handle flashes green five times at
4 Hz rate and turns off. This indicates that there is a PSU mismatch
with respect to efficiency, feature set, health status, and supported
voltage. Ensure that both the PSUs are the same.
D
Flashing amber
Indicates a problem in the PSU.
CAUTION: When correcting a PSU mismatch, replace only the
PSU with the flashing indicator. Swapping the other PSU to
make a matched pair can result in an error condition and
unexpected system shutdown. To change from a High Output
configuration to a Low Output configuration or vice versa,
you must turn off the system.
