The four energy storage modules (ESMs) in the system provide backup power to the Flash Modules when system power is removed or interrupted. From the front of the system, the ESMs are numbered 0–3 from left to right.
When an ESM fails and needs to be replaced, the amber Fault LED on the front of the ESM illuminates. In addition, the Common Array Manager software will identify which ESM has faulted.
