Status Bar Indicator; Monitoring Hardware Operation - HP Surestore 64 - Director Switch User Manual

Status Bar Indicator

The status bar displays a colored status symbol that indicates the overall operating
status of the director unit. The operating status depends on hardware component
failures, which are indicated by status symbols that display over component
graphics in the Hardware View. Refer to
meanings of status symbols in the status bar.
The status bar indicates the director operating status based on component failures.
For example, for a single port failure, a blinking red and yellow diamond displays
on the port connector in the Hardware View. At the same time, a yellow triangle
displays in the status bar to indicate a degraded director. However, if a blinking
red and yellow diamond displays over both fan modules, the status bar displays a
red and yellow diamond, indicating a failure that requires immediate attention.

Monitoring Hardware Operation

Determine hardware component operating status and states by the simulated LED
indicators and status symbols that display on port cards, CTP cards, power
supplies, fan modules, and SBAR cards illustrated in the Hardware View.

Director Product Manager User Guide
Green and amber indicators illuminate on each FRU to indicate either an
operational or degraded state, respectively. LEDs for individual ports do not
illuminate on port cards in the Hardware View, but do illuminate in the Port
Card View for each port (refer to
Alert symbols, such as flashing red and yellow diamonds and yellow
triangles, display on FRUs to reflect the overall state of the hardware as
changes occur.
Corresponding or additional descriptions of hardware status and states also
display when you click components to display Properties dialog boxes.
