Supported Operating Systems - IBM Flex System p24L Compute Node Product Manual

If problems occur, the light path diagnostics LEDs assist in identifying the subsystem involved. To
illuminate the LEDs with the compute node removed, press the power button on the front panel. This
temporarily illuminates the LEDs of the troubled subsystem to direct troubleshooting efforts towards a
resolution.
Typically, an administrator has already obtained this information from the IBM Flex System Manager or
Chassis Management Module before removing the node, but having the LEDs helps with repairs and
troubleshooting if onsite assistance is needed.
