RPS Status
RPS is off or not properly connected.
RPS is connected and ready to provide back-up power, if required.
RPS is connected but is unavailable because it is providing power to another device
(redundancy has been allocated to a neighboring device).
The RPS is in standby mode or in a fault condition. Press the Standby/Active button
on the RPS, and the LED should turn green. If it does not, the RPS fan could have
failed. Contact Cisco Systems.
The internal power supply in a switch has failed, and the RPS is providing power
to the switch (redundancy has been allocated to this device).
