AC and DC power LED: Each hot-swap power supply has an ac power LED and a
dc power LED. During typical operation, both the ac and dc power LEDs are lit. For
any other combination of LEDs, see "Power LED errors" on page 240.
Hard disk drive activity LED: When this green LED is on, it indicates that the hard
disk drive is in use.
Note: On some server models, each hot-swap hard disk drive has an activity LED.
Hard disk drive status LED: When the drive is connected to the integrated SCSI
controller with RAID capabilities, a flashing status LED indicates that the drive is a
secondary drive in a mirrored pair and the drive is being synchronized. When the
drive is connected to an optional ServeRAID controller, a slowly flashing (one flash
per second) status LED indicates that the drive is being rebuilt. When the LED is
flashing rapidly (three flashes per second), it indicates that the controller is
identifying the drive.
