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).
Deactivating a system attention LED or partition LED by using the management console You can deactivate a system attention LED or a logical partition LED if you decide that a problem is not a high priority and you decide to repair the problem at a later time. You can do this task from the Hardware Management Console (HMC).
– An indication that you cannot activate the logical partition LED. 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).
Deactivating a system attention LED or logical partition LED by using the Advanced System Management Interface You can deactivate a system attention LED or a logical partition LED by using the Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI). The check log indicator provides a visual signal that the system as a whole requires attention or service. Each system has a single check log indicator.
Deactivating a system attention LED by using the operating system or VIOS tools You can use the AIX, IBM i, or Linux operating system, or the Virtual I/O Server (VIOS) tools to deactivate a system attention LED. Deactivating the indicator light for a part by using AIX diagnostics Use this procedure to turn off any indicator light that you turned on as a part of a service action.
Related information: Service and productivity tools for Linux on Power servers IBM provides hardware diagnostic aids and productivity tools, and installation aids for Linux operating systems on IBM Power Systems servers.
