If the system is turned on, check the hard disk drive status LED to verify that the hard disk drive
is operating correctly.
After you replace a failed hard disk drive, the green activity LED flashes as the disk spins up. The yellow LED
turns off after approximately 1 minute. If the new drive starts to rebuild, the yellow LED flashes slowly, and
the green activity LED remains lit during the rebuild process. If the yellow LED remains lit, see "Hard disk
drive problems" on page 143.
Note: You might have to reconfigure the disk arrays after you install hard disk drives. See the RAID
documentation on the ServeRAID Support CD for information about RAID controllers.
