Activating and deactivating LEDs

You can use these procedures to activate or deactivate light-emitting diodes (LEDs) by using the
management console or the Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI).

The system attention LED is activated when an error that requires a service action is detected, but a fault
LED is not activated. Such errors can include errors that generate a system reference code (SRC) or a
service request number (SRN). On systems that support fault LEDs, a fault LED is activated for many
problems that can be isolated to a specific hardware component. However, for some problems that
require a service action, a fault LED might not be activated even if a problem can be isolated to a specific
hardware component. For those problems, the system attention LED is activated instead.

For IBM Power Systems™ servers that contain the POWER8® processor, the LEDs can be used to identify
or verify a part that you are servicing. The error and identify function (amber) LED indicates an error
and corresponds to the location code in the system reference code (SRC). The LED is activated and
deactivated automatically.

Additionally, the following procedures can also be used to activate and deactivate LEDs.
v “Deactivating a system attention LED or partition LED by using the management console” on page 52
v “Activating or deactivating an identify LED by using the management console” on page 53
v “Deactivating a system attention LED or logical partition LED by using the Advanced System
Management Interface” on page 54
v “Activating or deactivating an identify LED by using the Advanced System Management Interface” on
page 54

Activating or deactivating an identify LED by using the management

console
You can activate or deactivate an identify LED for components attached to the system from the Hardware
Management Console (HMC).

The system provides several LEDs that help identify various components in the system, such as
enclosures or field-replaceable units (FRUs). For this reason, they are called identify LEDs.

You can activate or deactivate the following types of identify LEDs:

v Identify LED for an enclosure. If you want to add an adapter to a specific drawer (enclosure), you
need to know the machine type, model, and serial number (MTMS) of the drawer. To determine
whether you have the correct MTMS for the drawer that needs the new adapter, you can activate the
LED for a drawer and verify that the MTMS corresponds to the drawer that requires the new adapter.
v Identify LED for a FRU associated with a specified enclosure. If you want to hook up a cable to a
specific I/O adapter, you can activate the LED for the adapter, which is a field replaceable unit (FRU),
and then physically check to see where you should connect the cable. This is especially useful when
you have several adapters with open ports.

To activate or deactivate an identify LED for an enclosure or FRU, choose one of the following navigation
options depending on the interface type of the HMC:
v If you are using an HMC Classic or HMC Enhanced interface, complete the following steps:

Deactivating a system attention LED by using the ASMI
You can use the Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI) to deactivate a system attention LED.

Deactivating the identify LED by using the ASMI when you know the location code
Learn how to deactivate the identify LED by using the Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI)
when you know the location code.

You can specify the location code of any indicator to view or modify its current state. If you provide the
wrong location code, the ASMI attempts to go to the next higher level of the location code.

The next level is the base-level location code for that field replaceable unit (FRU). For example, a user
types the location code for the FRU located on the second memory module slot of the third enclosure in
the system. If the location code for the second memory module slot is incorrect (the FRU does not exist at
this location), an attempt to set the indicator for the third enclosure is initiated. This process continues
until a FRU is located or no other level is available.

To complete this operation, your authority level must be one of the following levels:
v Administrator
v Authorized service provider

To change the current state of an indicator, complete the following steps:

1. On the ASMI Welcome pane, specify your user ID and password, and click Log In.
2. In the navigation area, expand System Configuration > Service Indicators > Indicators by Location
code.
3. In the Location code field, type the location code of the FRU and click Continue.
4. From the Identify indicator status list, select Off.
5. Click Save settings.
