Manageability Reset Button on Core I/O Board FRU's Bulkhead
The manageability Reset button, with pinhole access from the rear of the server, allows you to
reset the iLO 2 MP; it optionally also resets user-specified values to factory default values. A
momentary press causes a soft reset of the iLO 2 MP, when the button is released; a greater
than four-second press effects the same end upon release, and also returns user-specified values
to factory default values (hard reset).
The crucial values to be reset are:
Serial terminal baud settings
User names and passwords
Manageability Status LED
The manageability status LED indicates the state and health of the iLO 2 MP. It is visible from
the rear of the server.
Table 65

Verifying Hard Disk Drive Operation
Each hard disk drive has an activity LED indicator on the front of the drive.
NOTE:
Only the Activity LED is used. The Status LED is not monitored by the OS.
Lightpipes on the disk drive transmit light to these apertures from LEDs on the inside rear of the
hot-swap mass storage cage. Verify that the LED shows the correct activity indication for all disk
drives that you installed:
1.
Turn on power to the server and display monitor.
2.
During the boot sequence, watch the Activity LED on each hard disk drive: Activity LED:
The LED quickly cycles from amber to green. The LED stays steady green until the drive
spins up.
3.
If the activity LED stays illuminated steady green on any disk drives (after the drive spins
up), the drive cage may not be correctly installed. Check installation as follows:
a.
Turn off the Hewlett Packard Enterprise server power switch and unplug the AC power
cords and any cables.
b.
Verify that the SAS interface is correctly installed.
c.
Reconnect the AC power cords and any cables. Restart the Hewlett Packard Enterprise
server to determine whether the LEDs now become illuminated during the boot. If not,
contact your reseller.
4.
If the LED indicator on a single disk drive is not illuminated during boot, the disk drive may
be installed incorrectly, or its lightpipes may be damaged.
Check the lightpipe on the disk drive as follows:
