Monitoring the VSS2249RQ Storage
Chapter 7
Server
The VSS2249RQ Storage Server provides the flexibility to enable users to
customize the behavior of many of the system LEDs using IPMI commands.
This chapter discusses the programmable and self-driven LEDs and provides
suggestions for programming LED behavior. Additionally, the BMC WebUI
provides access to system monitoring tools.
LEDs
LEDs are available for the following components:
SYSTEM STATUS
Ten programmable status LEDs are located along the top left edge on the front
of the enclosure, just above the drive bays. These LEDs do not illuminate on
startup until programmed. From the left of the enclosure, the first three LEDs
can provide system status. For those FRUs that are not visible from the cold
aisle—the fans, server modules, and power modules—the next six LEDs can
provide FRU group status and direct the user to the appropriate FRU for further
investigation in the event of a fault. The final LED is not currently in use. Figure
7.1 on page 78 provides a close-up view of these LEDs.

NOTE: VES offers assistance with using IPMI commands to program LED behavior in
the document titled, "VSS2249RQ Management Over IPMI," which is available for
download. Contact a VES support representative (see
