The IBM 2212 has a number of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that indicate how the unit is functioning. The following sections describe what each LED indicates.
If you have a high-performance system card or a Model x5x, the 4-port WAN PMC Mezzanine, one PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) adapter slot, each WAN port, and the system card have their own set of green and yellow LEDs. The compact flash and hard drive each have a yellow status LED.
If you have a base system card, the PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) adapter slot, each integrated WAN port, and the service port on the system card have their own set of green and yellow LEDs. Additionally, the system card has a green and yellow LED for overall system card status.
During a power-on reset (POR), the green and yellow system card status and service port LEDs turn on and blink in different combinations to reflect the component that is being loaded and tested. Once the IBM 2212 has been loaded and tested successfully, the system status card green LED is lit to indicate that the device is operational2. The sections that follow reflect problems that can occur after successful load and test.
For more information about problems that can occur before or during operational code load, see page Chapter 2, "Problem Solving".

Table 2-1. System card LEDs (Standard and High-Performance)
LED | Color | Meaning |
---|---|---|
System card status | Green | On - Operating normally.
Off - Waiting for power on or the operational code to be loaded. |
| Yellow | On - Card has a fault. |
Service port (standard system card only) | Green | On - Operating normally.
Off - DRAM may be defective. |
| Yellow | On and system card status yellow LED On - Service port defective.
Off - No problem detected |
Hard Drive 1 and 2 (high-performance system card only) | Yellow | HD1 On - The compact flash has a fault.
HD1 Off - No problem detected. HD2 On - The hard drive has a fault. HD2 Off - No problem detected. |
WAN ports | Green | On - Port is operational.
Off- Port is not configured or is disabled. |
| Yellow | On - Port has a hardware fault.
Blinking - The port has an I/O failure. Off - No problem detected. |
PMC adapters | Green | On - Adapter is operational.
Off - Adapter is up. No problem detected. |
| Yellow | On - Adapter has a hardware fault.
Blinking - The adapter has an I/O failure. Off - Adapter is up. No problem detected. |
|
Each adapter port has LEDs to indicate the port's condition as described in the following sections.
Note: | There are also LEDs on the rear of the IBM 2212 that indicate the status of the adapter in the corresponding slot. See Additional Slot-Status LEDs. |
