Interpret Controller Module Leds - Quantum QXS Series Hardware Installation And Maintenance Manual

In the case of a fault condition, identified in the state column with an asterisk (*), troubleshoot the fault. If a fault
exists on a single data path, only the related LED panel reports the fault, just as it would with a cable module,
cable link, or drive faults. See the baseboard management controller (BMC) system event log (SEL) for
detailed information.

Interpret controller module LEDs

There are two redundant controller modules (CMs) that use a series of LEDs to reflect host connectivity status.
You can monitor the LEDs from the rear panel area to determine system status in combination with the user
interface content. You cannot mix controller types when daisy-chaining controllers.
In the case of a fault condition, identified in the state column with an asterisk (*), troubleshoot the fault and take
appropriate corrective action.
