After the USB flash drive
is inserted into the full-sized USB port on the canister that is being
initialized, identify LED turns on, then turns off, indicating that
you can proceed with the initialization. Normally this process takes
up to three minutes.
About this task
After the
USB flash drive is inserted into the full sized USB port, the identify
LED ( 1 ) should start blinking.
If the identify LED does not turn off as expected,
use the following steps to determine any necessary action:
Procedure
- Ensure that you have waited at least three minutes
from when the identify LED first turned on. If the LED turns off
within this time, return to the initialization wizard. If the identify
LED remains turned on, proceed to 2.
- Look at the status LED. (
) If
the status LED is permanently on, proceed to step 6.
- If the status LED is blinking or permanently off, the canister might need to be replaced. Try reseating
the canister in the enclosure and retrying the initialization wizard.
If you get the same results, contact your IBM support to replace the
canister.
- Cancel the initialization wizard.
- Reinsert the USB flash drive into your personal computer
and restart the initialization tool. Complete the steps in the tool,
but use the other canister in the enclosure. If after completing the
initialization wizard, the identify LED does not stop blinking, contact your
support representative for further assistance.
- If the status LED is permanently
on, then the system has initialized successfully. Return to the initialization
wizard and continue as if the identify LED has turned off. Verify
the results of initialization. If the system is operational, log
on to the management GUI and complete system setup. After completing
system setup, check the identify LED to determine if it is still on.
If the identify LED is still on, complete these steps:
- In the management GUI, select .
- Restart the system.
- If the identify LED
continues to blink, contact IBM support for more assistance.
