Appliance control panel
The front panel of the Veritas 5150 Appliance includes a small panel that is attached to the right side of the device. The panel provides basic control of the system as well as LED status indicators such as the power button, ID button/LED, and system status.
Table: Control panel system LED descriptions
LED | System information |
|---|---|
Power button with integrated LED | The Power button toggles the system on and off. |
Hard drive Activity LED | The drive activity LED on the front panel indicates drive activity from the on-board hard disk controllers. |
System ID button with integrated LED | The System ID button toggles the integrated ID LED and the blue server board LED on and off. The system ID LED identifies the system for maintenance when it is racked with similar server systems. |
Network activity LEDs | The front control panel includes one LED for each of the 1 GB RJ45 port on the Quad Gigabit Ethernet OCP module. When network links are detected on the controllers, the LEDs are activated and remain solid green. The LEDs blink when network activity occurs, and the amount of network activity that occurs determines the rate at which they blink. |
NMI button (recessed, tool required for use) | When it is depressed, the NMI button puts the appliance in a halt state, issues a non-maskable interrupt (NMI), and then triggers the non-maskable interrupt. All server data can be lost. It can only be accessed with a small sharp object such as a pin or paperclip. Veritas recommends that you do not enable NMI by pressing the NMI button. |
System Cold Reset button (recessed, tool required for use on non-storage models) | When depressed, the System Cold Reset button restarts and re-initializes the appliance without shutting down gracefully. It can only be accessed with a small sharp object such as a pin or paperclip. |
System Status LED | The System Status LED is bi-color indicator that uses the colors green and amber to display the current health of the appliance. Two locations are provided for you to monitor the health of the system. You can find the first location on the front control panel, while the second location is located on the back edge of the server board. It is viewable from the rear of the appliance. Both LEDs show the same state of health. |
Drive Carrier LED | The appliance has 4 internal 3.5" SAS HDD. Each drive carrier has 2 LEDs, a drive activity LED (green) and drive status LED (amber). |
Power Supply LED | Each power supply has a bi-color indicator that uses the colors green and amber to represent its current status: |
