136 Using the LCD Panel Interface
Diagnostics
The LCD panel helps you to diagnose problems with any server or module in
the chassis. If there is a problem or fault with the chassis or any server or other
module in the chassis, the LCD panel status indicator blinks amber. On the
Main Menu a blinking icon with an amber background displays next to the
menu item—Server or Enclosure—that leads to the faulty server or module.
By following the blinking amber icons down through the LCD menu system,
you can display the status screen and error messages for the item that has the
problem.
Error messages on the LCD panel can be removed by removing the module or
server that is the cause of the problem or by clearing the hardware log for the
module or server. For server errors, use the iDRAC Web interface or
command line interface to clear the server’s System Event Log (SEL). For
chassis errors, use the CMC Web interface or command line interface to clear
the hardware log.
