LED
to
be
lit.
When
the
LED
flashes,
an
invalid
fan
configuration
has
occurred.
Replace
the
failing
fan,
which
is
indicated
by
the
lit
LED.
If
a
configuration
error
has
occurred,
make
sure
that
the
fans
are
installed
correctly.
TEMP
The
system
temperature
has
exceeded
a
threshold
level.
v
Determine
whether
a
fan
has
failed.
If
it
has,
replace
it.
v
Make
sure
that
the
air
vents
are
not
blocked.
v
Make
sure
that
the

temperature
is
not
too
high.
See
the
“Features

specifications”
on
page
4
for
temperature
information.
If
the
problem
remains,
call
for
service.
BRD
An
error
has
occurred
on
the
system
board
or
there
is

fault
v
Check
the
LEDs
on

component
that
is
causing

has
occurred
on
PCI
bus
A
Check
the

Adapter
in
slot
2
for
an
error
or
there
might
be
a
general
system
board
malfunction.
PCI-B
An
error
has
occurred
on
PCI
bus
B
Check
the
following
items
for
errors:
v
PCI/PCI-X
Adapter
in
Slots
1
or
2.
v
On-board
SCSI.
v
The
system
board
might
have
a
malfunction.
PCI-C
An
error
has
occurred
on

bus
C
Check
the
on-board
Ethernet
controllers
or
check
for
