C1100 Hard Drive Caddy light always on?
2 of the 4 HDD caddy lights (green) are stuck on? I've changed them around and changed drives around, but no luck. Everything works correctly, HDD's are good. Mostly just an annoyance. Any tips would be appreciated.
Thanks,
DELL-Chris H

Prodigerati,
I would start by updating the server to current on the BIOS, BMC, Raid controller, as well as the drives. Keeping those up to date and current will minimize issues like the ones you are seeing. If you let me know the raid controller I can get you the correct links. For the drives, you can find the updates here, under SAS Drives.
Let me know how it goes.

Thank you for the information. I will try update this weekend.
I'm actually using SATA drives and not SAS, so I'm going to skip that update.
Thanks again, Chris!

Well come to find out the system I have is a CS24-TY and I'm not having any luck finding a way to update BIOS with CentOs 7 operating system.
Any other ideas on why the HDD light would be stuck on for 2 of the 4 drives?
Thanks,
