HBA LEDs states and results
Table 6: POST LED states for 16Gb HBAs lists the HBA LED states and describes each state.
If the LEDs indicate a failure during POST:
1. Make sure the HBA is seated firmly in the PCI slot.
2. Verify that the fiber cable connection to the HBA is secure.
3. Check the POST LED states listed in Table 6: POST LED states for 16Gb HBAs to determine
the HBA status.
