If this indicator is on solid then DC power is present and
the system is powered on. If it is blinking then AC Power
is present but the DS6000 is not powered on. If this
indicator is off then AC power is not present.
Lighthouse
This indicator is normally off. It can be made to blink by
pressing the lightpath identify button. It is used to identify
all enclosures that are grouped together in one system.

Circled letter
This indicator is normally off. If it is on solid, then an error
has occurred that cannot be fixed by light path
diagnostics. To turn this light off you need to use the GUI
to correct the error condition. This may be as little as to
just view the error log.
Exclamation mark
This indicator is normally off. This indicator turns on solid
when a fault has been detected and will remain on until
the fault condition has been corrected.
Battery
This indicator is normally off. If it is blinking then the
battery is charging. If it is on solid then AC power has
been lost and the DS6000 has data in cache being
protected by battery.
Box with arrow
This indicator is normally off. If it is on solid then a fault
pointing to rear
has occurred within a CRU in the rear of the enclosure
and can be repaired using the light path indicators.
