Diagnostic tools

Use the lightpath diagnostic LEDs and the event log to diagnose and solve hardware related problems

In addition, you can use the advanced management module service data tool to collect a complete set of diagnostics that can be used by IBM® service personnel for analysis. To access the service data tool from the advanced management module Web interface, click Service Tools > MM Service Data .

• Light path diagnostic LEDs
  Light path diagnostic LEDs are a system of LEDs on the BladeCenter S chassis and components that can be used to identify system errors. If the front or rear system error LED of the BladeCenter S chassis is lit, one or more error LEDs on a component also might be lit. These LEDs help identify the cause of the problem.
• Event log
  The advanced management module event log contains messages that are generated while the advanced management module is monitoring the BladeCenter S system.
