NOTE:
Each time the 8Gb SAN Switch is powered on, its settings are restored to the last saved configuration.
Interpreting LED activity
You can monitor switch a ctivity and status by checking 8Gb SAN Switch LEDs.
There are three possible LED states: no light, a steady li ght, or a flashing light. The steady lights and
flashing lights can be green or amber.
The LEDs flash any of these colors during boot, POST, or other diagnostic tests. This is normal and
does not indicate a problem unless the LEDs do not indicate a healthy state after all boot processes
and diagnostic tests are complete. A healthy state is indicated by a steady green light. See Table
15 , page 35 for details about LED activity.
LED indicators
All 8Gb SAN Switch LEDs are located on the port side. See Figure 8 and Table 14.
