1. Using the CLI, run the show disk-group-statistics command.
The Reads and Writes outputs show the number of these operations that have occurred since the statistic was last
reset, or since the controller was restarted. Record the numbers displayed.
2. Run the show disk-group-statistics command a second time.
This provides you a specific window of time (the interval between requesting the statistics) to determine if data is
being written to or read from the disk group. Record the numbers displayed.
3. To determine if any reads or writes occur during this interval, subtract the set of numbers you recorded in
the numbers you recorded in
If the resulting difference is zero, then I/O has stopped.

Diagnostic steps

This section describes possible reasons and actions to take when an LED indicates a fault condition during initial system
setup. See "LED descriptions" (page 58)
NOTE: Once event notification is configured and enabled using the SMU, you can view event logs to monitor the health
of the system and its components using the GUI.
In addition to monitoring LEDs via line-of-sight observation of racked hardware components when performing diagnostic
steps, you can also monitor the health of the system and its components using the management interfaces. Be mindful of
this when reviewing the Actions column in the diagnostics tables, and when reviewing the step procedures provided in
this chapter.
