Chapter 2 HP NetServer AA Overview State Active Faulted Table 2-6 Interconnect States Description Indicates that the server components on both sides of the Interconnect are active members of the server configuration. The Interconnect remains in this state until one of the components is removed from the configuration. Then, the Interconnect transitions to offline or ready. Indicates that the server removed the Interconnect from operation as a result of one or more faults that were attributed to the Interconnect. The Interconnect remains in this state until it is repaired and then enabled (using Endurance Manager). MIC Port State Display Lights Each IOP collects and displays the status of its local MIC ports along with the status of the CE MIC ports connected through the cable. CE status is relayed to the IOP with the assistance of MIC firmware; therefore, the CE port status is only available after the CE MIC BIOS has set its ports to a software-enabled state. The following table explains the MIC port state lights displayed on the MIC's graphical display in the Endurance Manager window. Table 2-7 MIC Port State Display Lights Color Green Red Orange State Good Failed Lost Power PCI Reset Description The MIC hardware is successfully sending and receiving fiber signals through the fiber connector. The MIC port has detected a break in communication over the path, which may be caused by a cable disconnection or a failure in the transmitters or receivers associated with this path. This light does not indicate which end of the path may have failed, and does not imply that the MIC reporting this state is broken. The MIC port at the opposite end of the cable has detected a local DC-low condition (power loss). The MIC port at the opposite end of the cable has detected a PCI bus reset. 26

MIC Port State Display Lights
Each IOP collects and displays the status of its local MIC ports along with the status of the CE
MIC ports connected through the cable. CE status is relayed to the IOP with the assistance of
MIC firmware; therefore, the CE port status is only available
after
the CE MIC BIOS has set
its ports to a software-enabled state.
The following table explains the MIC port state lights displayed on the MIC
s graphical display
in the Endurance Manager window.
Active
Indicates that the server components on both sides of the Interconnect are active members of
the server configuration.
The Interconnect remains in this state until one of the components
is removed from the configuration.
Then, the Interconnect transitions to
offline
or
ready
.
Faulted
Indicates that the server removed the Interconnect from operation as a result of one or more
faults that were attributed to the Interconnect. The Interconnect remains in this state until it is
repaired and then enabled (using Endurance Manager).

Failed
The MIC port has detected a break in communication over the
path, which may be caused by a cable disconnection or a failure
in the transmitters or receivers associated with this path. This
light does not indicate which end of the path may have failed,
and does not imply that the MIC reporting this state is broken.
Orange
Lost Power
