iLO POST LED indicators
During the initial boot of iLO, the POST LED indicators flash to display the progress through the iLO boot
process. After the boot process is complete, the HB LED flashes in one second intervals. LED indicators (1
through 6) illuminate after the system has booted to indicate a hardware failure. If a hardware failure is
detected, reset iLO. For the location of the LED indicators, see the server documentation.
A runtime failure of iLO is indicated by HB constantly remaining in either the On or Off state. A runtime failure
of iLO can also be indicated by a repeated flashing pattern on all eight LEDs. If a runtime error occurs, reset
iLO.
The LED indicators have the following assignments.
