1 | Health indicator | | Indicates the health of the system.- If the system is on and in good health, the indicator
lights solid blue. No corrective action is required.
- The indicator blinks amber if the system is on or
in standby, and if any error exists (for example, a failed fan). See
the System Event Log or system messages for the specific issue. For
more information on error messages, see the Dell Event and Error Messages
Reference Guide at Dell.com/esmmanuals. Invalid memory configurations
can cause the system to halt at startup without any video output.
See the Getting help section.

3 | Power-on indicator, power
button | | The power-on indicator lights
when the system power is on. The power button controls the power supply
output to the system. NOTE: On ACPI-compliant
operating systems, turning off the system using the power button causes the system to perform a graceful shutdown before power to the system is turned off. |

on the front and back panels can be used to locate a particular system
within a rack. When one of these buttons is pressed, the corresponding
system identification button on the back flashes until one of the

button to turn the system ID on or off. If the
system stops responding during POST, press and hold the system ID
button for more than five seconds to enter BIOS progress mode. To reset iDRAC (if not disabled in F2 iDRAC setup),
press and hold the button for more than 15 seconds. |
