card fails when one or more individual ports fail.
Four sets of green and amber LEDs beneath the amber card status indicator correspond to the
four port connectors installed vertically down the port card.

—In Figure 21 , the amber LED is blinking (while the green LED is on) for the first port on the
card, and a yellow triangle is displayed by the port’s connector. This indicates that beaconing is
enabled for the port and the port is in an on line state. Note that if the amber port indicator
flashes and the green indicator is off, the port is running diagnostics.
The green indicator illuminates when the port is on line with an attached device and fully
operational. The green port LED remains on as long as the port remains in the on line state. The
green LED on the physical card flashes when there is active Fibre Channel traffic through the
port. It does not flash in the Port Card view.
