Verifying The Installed Part By Using The Sdmc; Activating And Deactivating Leds By Using The Sdmc; Deactivating A System Attention Led Or Partition Led By Using The Sdmc - IBM 8202-E4B Manual

Verifying the installed part by using the SDMC

If you installed or replaced a part, use the IBM Systems Director Management Console (SDMC) to update
your SDMC records after you have completed a service action on your server. If you have reference
codes, symptoms, or location codes that you used during the service action, locate the records for use
during this procedure.
To verify the installed part, complete these steps:
1. From the SDMC, examine the service action event log for any open service action events. See
"Viewing serviceable events by using the SDMC" on page 174 for details.
2. Are there any service action events that are open?
No: If the system attention LED is still on, use the SDMC to turn off the LED. See "Activating and
deactivating LEDs by using the SDMC." This ends the procedure.
Yes: Continue with the next step.
3. Record the list of open service action events.
4. Examine the details of the open service action event. Is the error code associated with this service
action event the same as you gathered earlier.
v No: Select one of the following options:
– Review the other serviceable events, find one that does match, and continue with the next step.
– If the log does not match what you had gathered earlier, contact your service provider.
v Yes: Continue with the next step.
5. Select and highlight the service action event from the Error Associated With This Serviceable Event
window.
6. Click Delete or Ignore.
Note: These options are only available from the problem event log.

Activating and deactivating LEDs by using the SDMC

Use this procedure to activate or deactivate LEDs by using the IBM Systems Director Management
Console (SDMC).

Deactivating a system attention LED or partition LED by using the SDMC:

You can deactivate a system attention LED or a logical partition LED. For example, you might determine
that a problem is not a high priority and decide to repair the problem at a later time. However, you want
to be alerted if another problem occurs, so you must deactivate the system attention LED so that it can be
activated again if another problem occurs.
To deactivate the system attention LED, complete the following steps:
1. On the Resources tab, select the appropriate host or virtual server.
2. Select Actions > Service and Support > Hardware > System Attention LED.
3. Select Deactivate System Attention LED. A confirmation window is displayed that provides the
following information:
v A verification that the system attention LED was deactivated.
v An indication that there still might be open problems within the system.
v An indication that you cannot activate the system attention LED.
4. Select one of the virtual servers, and select Deactivate System Attention LED. A confirmation
window is displayed that provides the following information:
v A verification that the system attention LED was deactivated.
v An indication that there still might be open problems within the logical partition.
v An indication that you cannot activate the virtual server LED.
