This section contains FRUs that have LED indicators. Each
listed assembly is shown with a description of its LEDs. Do not use
LEDs as a starting point for diagnosing a problem.

Fibre channel port,
4Gb/s, LEDs (see Table 5 and Table 6 )
Notes:
LED off indicates port above and port below LED are both
not Ready .
LED on solid indicates port above and port below LED
are both Ready (operational).
If LED is blinking 0.75 sec ON and 0.25 sec OFF, then
only the port above the LED is Ready . If LED is
blinking 0.25 sec ON and 0.75 sec OFF, then only the port below the
LED is failing.
