indicates, that the IMM code is in
the loading process.
2. When this LED goes off
momentarily, this indicates that

jumper to recover the firmware
(see “System-board switches
and jumpers” on page 18).
b. (Trained service technician

Diagnostic programs and messages
The diagnostic programs are the primary method of testing the major components
of the server. As you run the diagnostic programs, text messages are displayed on
the screen and are saved in the test log. A diagnostic text message indicates that a
problem has been detected and provides the action you should take as a result of
the text message.
Make sure that the server has the latest version of the diagnostic programs. To
download the latest version, complete the following steps.
