Hot-Swap Drive Status Indicators: You can use the status LEDs on the hot-swap drives to obtain status information for the drives. Drive In-Use light (Center Green LED): The server is writing to or reading from the hard disk. Drive Fault light (Amber LED): The SCSI drive is faulty. In a disk-array model, this amber LED blinks when the drive is part of a disk array and is being rebuilt. The SCSI drive status condition LED indications are: Drive In-Use LED Off Blinking Off Off Drive Fault LED Status Off Off On Blinking slowly Hot-swap drive is present. Hot-swap drive is present; power to the drive is on. The drive is in use. The drive has a problem, and can be replaced. Disk-array models only: The drive should not be replaced at this time. The drive has just been replaced, and the disk array is being rebuilt. Power to the drive is on. Note If an installed drive is not recognized by the server, check the cable. Using the File Editor The file editor allows you to modify text files. By modifying files, such as your AUTOEXEC.BAT or CONFIG.SYS files, you can improve the test system's performance and eliminate unnecessary lines of information in those files. Note Always make a backup copy on a self-starting diskette of the AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files before making any changes. 20 Netfinity Server HMM

In a disk-array model, this amber LED blinks
when the drive is part of a disk array and is being
rebuilt.
The SCSI drive status condition LED indications are:
