PC Server 325 / 330 - Hard drive In-Use LED not flashing

Applicable to: World-Wide

Abstract :
Server 325/330 Hard Drive in-use LED not flashing

Symptom :
The amber SCSI Hard Drive In-Use Indicator on the Server Operator Panel is not flashing during hard drive activity.

Problem Isolation Aids :
- The system is a PC Server 325 (8639) or 330 (8640)

- The hard drives are connected to a SCSI adapter or RAID adapter and NOT connected to the on-board (integrated) SCSI controller.

Fix :
Do not replace any hardware. The SCSI Hard Drive In-Use Indicator will NOT light during hard drive activity on drives connected to a SCSI adapter or RAID adapter. The LED on the Server Operator Panel only indicates activity for hard drives attached to the on-board (integrated) SCSI controller.
