Power on/Standby button
and LED
Amber = System has AC power and is in standby mode
Green = System has AC power and is turned on
Off = System has no AC power
Memory board components and LEDs
Error indicators remain illuminated when the system is powered off so that the status of the LEDs can still
be seen. This behavior matches the behavior of all the other error indicators in the server.
The indicators are only cleared in the following situations:
• If the locking switch is locked after the board is reinstalled
• If the server is rebooted
• If the board is removed from the server
CAUTION: When the memory board locking switch is unlocked in a mode that does not support hot-add or
hot-replace capabilities, audio alarms and visual alerts occur. Removing the memory board at this point
causes server failure.
To end the audio alarms and visual alerts, move the memory board locking switch back to the locked position.
This action does not result in data corruption or server failure.
If removal of a single memory board is required and it is the only memory board, power down the server and
make the necessary memory changes.
