DPC Redundancy LED States
The Redundancy LED on the DPC/UDPC or /DPC2/UDPC2 indicates that software is loaded on the card, but
it is serving as a standby component. DPC/UDPCs or /DPC2/UDPC2s support n:1 redundancy; the Redundancy
LED should be green on only one DPC/UDPC or /DPC2/UDPC2 for normal system operation.
The possible states for this LED are described in the following table. If the LED is not green, use the
troubleshooting information in the table to diagnose the problem.

None needed. There is at least one DPC/UDPC or /DPC2/UDPC2 in Standby
mode.

Check the status of the other DPC/UDPCs or /DPC2/UDPC2s. If one DPC/UDPC
or /DPC2/UDPC2 has failed or has been removed from the chassis, the system
can continue to function but redundancy is compromised.

standby DPC.

Verify that the Run/Fail LED is green. If so, the card is receiving power and
POST results are positive. If it is off, refer to DPC Run/Fail LED States, on
page 207 for troubleshooting information.
