9.2.1 System Front Panel LEDs

LEDs in the system are controlled by OpenBoot™ PROM programming (OBP).
Table 9-1 lists the LED codes for system operations.

9.2.2 Clock Board LEDs

The clock board also displays system status. The LED codes are the same as for
the front panel. See Table 9-1.

9.2.3 CPU/Memory and I/O Board LEDs

For hot-pluggable boards, most of the LED codes correspond to those shown in
Table 9-1. The most important exception is the second code (Off-On-Off). For
hot-pluggable boards, Off-On-Off indicates that the board is in low-power
mode and is ready for removal.
