Fc Port Status Led Patterns; Gbe Optical Port Status Led Patterns - IBM SAN06B-R Installation, Service And User Manual

Fibre Channel port status LED patterns
The switch has one LED below each Fibre Channel port ( 9 , 10 , 11 in Figure 9
on page 26) to indicate how that particular port is functioning. Table 10 describes
the meaning of different displays of the port LEDs and recommended action, if
any.

GbE optical port status LED patterns

The switch has one LED below each GbE optical port ( 16 in Figure 9 on page 26)
to indicate how that particular port is functioning. Table 11 describes the meaning
of different displays of the port LEDs and recommended action, if any.
