Systems Insight Display LEDs

The front panel health LEDs indicate only the current hardware status. In some situations, HP SIM might
report server status differently than the health LEDs because the software tracks more system attributes. The
System Insight Display LEDs identify components experiencing an error, event, or failure.
The Systems Insight Display LEDs are located on the media board. In normal operations, all of the LEDs
are off unless one of the components fails.
