The right side of the front panel on an HPE SimpliVity 380 server provides diagnostic LEDs that indicate when the server is functioning properly and when a hardware-related error occurs. The indicators can help you correct problems before they affect service levels. HPE SimpliVity 380 Gen10 and HPE SimpliVity 380 Gen10 H (LFF) diagnostic indicators: Callout Function...
The LEDs on the front of each drive indicate when a drive has failed or is failing. If a drive fails, contact Customer Support (https://www.hpe.com/support/hpesc) to obtain a replacement drive of the same type, size, and speed. Note: HPE SimpliVity 380 Gen10 platforms may have different drive orientations and form factors but in general use the same LED diagnostic codes.
