Power supply LEDs, Light Path Diagnostics panel, PCI

Page 27 highlights

You can use the Light Path Diagnostics feature built into the server to quickly identify the type of system error that occurred. The server is designed so that any LEDs that are illuminated remain illuminated when the server shuts down as long as the ac power source is good and the power supplies can supply +5 V dc current to the server. This feature helps you isolate the problem if an error causes the server to shut down. See "Diagnostic tools overview" on page 13. Power supply LEDs The ac and dc power LEDs on the power supply provide status information about the power supply.
