See Managing Faults With ILOM for more information on using the show faulty command.
If the previous steps did not clear the fault, see Detecting and Managing Faults for information about the tools and methods you can use to diagnose component faults.
If the previous steps indicate that no faults have been detected, then the component has been replaced successfully. No further action is required.
