press causes a soft reset of the iLO 2 MP, when the button is released; a greater than four-second
press effects the same end upon release, and also returns user-specified values to factory default
values (hard reset).
The crucial values to be reset are:
•
Serial terminal baud settings
•
User names and passwords
Manageability Status LED
The manageability status LED indicates the state and health of the iLO 2 MP. It is visible from the
rear of the server.
Table 64

Verifying Hard Disk Drive Operation
Each hard disk drive has an activity LED indicator on the front of the drive.
NOTE:
Only the Activity LED is used. The Status LED is not monitored by the OS.
Lightpipes on the disk drive transmit light to these apertures from LEDs on the inside rear of the
hot-swap mass storage cage. Verify that the LED shows the correct activity indication for all disk
drives that you installed:
1.
Turn on power to the server and display monitor.
2.
During the boot sequence, watch the Activity LED on each hard disk drive:
Activity LED
: The
LED quickly cycles from amber to green. The LED stays steady green until the drive spins up.
3.
If the activity LED stays illuminated steady green on any disk drives (after the drive spins up),
the drive cage may not be correctly installed. Check installation as follows:
a.
Turn off the HP server power switch and unplug the AC power cords and any cables.
b.
Verify that the SAS interface is correctly installed.
c.
Reconnect the AC power cords and any cables. Restart the HP server to determine whether
the LEDs now become illuminated during the boot. If not, contact your reseller.
4.
If the LED indicator on a single disk drive is not illuminated during boot, the disk drive may
be installed incorrectly, or its lightpipes may be damaged.
Check the lightpipe on the disk drive as follows:
a.
Remove the disk drive.
b.
Inspect the lightpipes for damage. If a lightpipe is damaged, contact your reseller.
CAUTION:
The lightpipes are fragile. Be careful not to damage them when you inspect
them or when you reinsert the disk drive.
