Power-on LED
When this LED is lit, it indicates that the server is turned on. When this LED
is off, it indicates that ac power is not present, or the power supply or the
LED itself has failed.
Note: If this LED is off, it does not mean that there is no electrical power in
the server. The LED might be burned out. To remove all electrical
power from the server, you must disconnect the power cords from
the electrical outlets.

An LED on the system board might also be lit to help isolate the error. See
Chapter 5, “Solving problems,” on page 49 for additional information.
