Look for the blue indicator LED on the system to identify the enclosure that contains the part.
Important: A flashing amber LED indicates the location of the part and a solid amber LED indicates
that the part is failing.
7. Exit to the command line.
Identifying a part by using the ASMI
Learn how to activate or deactivate amber identify indicator light-emitting diodes (LEDs) by using the
Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI).
About this task
You can access the ASMI by using a web browser. For more information, see Accessing the ASMI using a
PC or notebook and web browser (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/POWER9/p9hby/
browser.htm).
For IBM Power Systems that contain the POWER9 processor, the identify LEDs can be used to identify or
verify the location of a part that you intend to install, remove, or replace. The identify function (flashing
the amber LED) corresponds to the location code that you will be using.
You can set the identify LED to flash and to stop flashing by using the ASMI.
Note: You can use the ASMI to turn on and turn off the identify indicators except for the adapters, disk
drives, solid-state drives, and media devices.
Activating the identify LED by using the ASMI when you know the location code
Learn how to activate the identify LED by using the Advanced System Management Interface (ASMI) when
you know the location code.
About this task
You can specify the location code of any indicator to view or modify its current state. If you provide the
wrong location code, the ASMI attempts to go to the next higher level of the location code.
The next level is the base-level location code for that field replaceable unit (FRU). For example, a user
types the location code for the FRU located on the second memory module slot of the third enclosure in
the system. If the location code for the second memory module slot is incorrect (the FRU does not exist at
this location), an attempt to set the indicator for the third enclosure is initiated. This process continues
until a FRU is located or no other level location code is available.
To complete this operation, your authority level must be one of the following levels:
• Administrator
• Authorized service provider
Procedure
1. On the ASMI Welcome pane, specify your user ID and password, and click Log In.
2. In the navigation area, expand System Configuration > Service Indicators > Indicators by Location
code.
3. In the Location code field, type the location code of the FRU and click Continue.
4. From the Identify indicator status list, select Identify.
5. Click Save settings.
