Light Guided Diagnostics
The server board has several on-board diagnostic LEDs to assist in troubleshooting board-level
issues. This section shows where each LED is located on the server board and describes the
function of each LED.
9.1
System Status LED (For the Intel
®
Server Board S3420GPLX and
S3420GPLC)
The server board provides a system status indicator LED on the front panel. This indicator LED
has specific states and corresponding interpretation as shown in the following table.

Description
Off
N/A
Not ready
AC power off. If no degraded, non-critical, critical, or non-
recoverable conditions exist.
Amber
Solid on
Critical, non-
recoverable
Fatal alarm – system has failed or shutdown:
Thermtrip asserted.
Non-recoverable temperature threshold asserted.
Non-recoverable voltage threshold asserted.
Power fault/Power Control Failure.
Fan redundancy lost, insufficient system cooling. This does not apply
to non-redundant systems.
Uncorrectable memory error.
Amber Blink
Non-critical
Non-fatal alarm – system is likely to fail:
CATERR asserted.
Critical temperature threshold asserted.
Critical voltage threshold asserted.
Critical fan threshold asserted.
VRD hot asserted.
SMI Timeout asserted.
Correctable error threshold has been reached for a failing DDR3
DIMM.
Green
Solid on
System OK
System booted and ready.
Green Blink
Degraded
System degraded:
Non-critical temperature threshold asserted.
Non-critical voltage threshold asserted.
Non-critical fan threshold asserted.
Fan redundancy lost, sufficient system cooling maintained. This
does not apply to non-redundant systems.
Power supply predictive failure.
Unable to use all of the installed memory (more than one DDR3
DIMM installed).
Correctable error threshold has been reached for a failing DDR3
DIMM on a given channel.
