.
Determining the status of a control processor blade (CP8)
1.
Check the LED indicators on the CP blade (
Figure 14
). The LED patterns may temporarily
change during POST and other diagnostic tests. For information about how to interpret the LED
patterns, see
Table 5
.
2.
Check the port blade status by entering
slotShow
and
haShow
.
Figure 14
identifies the CP8 blade.
