Condition
The indicator turns solid amber if
there is a drive error.
The indicator turns solid amber if
the system experiences a thermal
error (for example, the ambient
temperature is out of range or
there is a fan failure).
The indicator turns solid amber
if the system experiences an
electrical error (for example,
voltage out of range, or a failed
power supply unit (PSU) or voltage
regulator).
Corrective action
● Check the System Event Log to determine if the
drive has an error.
● Run the appropriate Online Diagnostics test.
Restart the system and run embedded
diagnostics (ePSA).
● If the drives are configured in a RAID array,
restart the system, and enter the host adapter
configuration utility program.
Ensure that none of the following conditions exist:
● A cooling fan has been removed or has failed.
● System cover, air shrouds, or back filler bracket
has been removed.
● Ambient temperature is too high.
● External airflow is obstructed.
If the problem persists, see the
Check the System Event Log or system messages
for the specific issue. If it is due to a problem with
the PSU, check the LED on the PSU. Reseat the
PSU.
If the problem persists, see the
