Obtaining Technical Assistance
Your system is a multipurpose, highly-available, rack-dense server with two Intel® Xeon™ microprocessors.
This section describes the major hardware and software features of your system and provides information about the system status indicators, and indicators
on the system's front and back panels. It also provides information about other documents you may need when setting up your system and how to obtain
technical assistance.
System Status Indicators
The system's bezel has an indictor that can represent system status when the bezel is installed (see Figure 1 -1 ). The indicator signifies when the system is
operating properly, when the system needs attention, or when the system is being identified (see "System Identification Indicators"). The back-panel indicator
connector allows an indicator to be attached that will function the same as the bezel system status indicator. A caution code signifies a problem with
microprocessors, power supply, system or power-supply fans, system temperature, hard drives, system memory, expansion cards, or the integrated SCSI
controller. (See your Installation and Troubleshooting Guide for more information.) When the bezel is off, the LCD status display assumes all of the functions of
the system status indicator (see "
Status LCD ").
Table 1 -1 and Table 1 -2 list the system's status indicator codes.
