Figure 4

Hardware view

In the Hardware view, colored indicators reflect the status of the actual LEDs on the switch FRUs. The

status bar displays a symbol to represent the most degraded status currently reported by any of the

switch FRUs. For example, for a port failure, which is indicated by a blinking red and yellow

diamond on a port, a yellow triangle is displayed on the status bar to indicate a degraded

condition. However, if a blinking red and yellow diamond is displayed over both power supplies,

the status bar displays a red and yellow diamond, which indicates a failure requiring immediate

attention.
For an explanation of the different status symbols and the reasons they display in the Hardware

view or Port List view, see the table under

Monitoring hardware operation

” on page 47.
