Legend for Figure 4-1
The yellow triangle status symbol indicates that the port card is in a degraded state.
This could indicate a problem with an individual port, such as a link failure or
service-required status. A yellow triangle could also indicate that a port is in
beaconing state. Open the port card view by clicking the port card to examine
individual port status. Refer to Using the Port Card View on page 4-14 for details.
The blinking red and yellow diamond displayed on the port card with the amber
port card LED illuminated may indicate that the card has failed. This may also
indicate that an individual port has failed on the card. Open the port card view by
clicking the port card to examine individual port status. If an individual port has
not failed, the card is at fault.
Refer to Table 4-3 on page 4-15 for details on port operating states and the status
symbol and indicator operation.
A blinking red and yellow diamond on a CTP card with its amber LED illuminated
indicates that the card has failed.
The green LED on a CTP card illuminates to indicate that the card is active. Since
the redundant CTP card on the left has failed, this CTP card has become the active
card. If both CTP cards are operational, no LEDs illuminates on the backup card,
while the green LED illuminates on the active CTP card.
The green and amber indicators on the far right of the front bezel simulate the
power and system error LEDs on the actual director bezel.
◆
The green indicator simulates the power LED on the actual director. When the
indicator illuminates, the director is connected to facility AC power and
operational. The indicator will be on if either power supply is operating.
◆
The amber system error light indicator (illuminated in Figure 4-1) simulates the
system error light on the actual director. When this indicator illuminates, an
event has occurred requiring immediate attention, such as a system, fan, power
supply, or port failure. View details of system errors by selecting Event Log
from the Product Manager Logs menu. The indicator in the Hardware view and
the LED on the actual unit remains illuminated until you clear the event by
right-clicking on the director graphic, away from a FRU, and selecting Clear
System Error Light
from the pop-up menu.
If the amber LED flashes, this indicates that unit beaconing has been enabled for the
director. Enable or disable unit beaconing by right-clicking on the director graphic, away
from a FRU, and selecting Enable Unit Beaconing from the pop-up menu.
