Server Fault Remind Button Operation

When you press the server Fault Remind button, an LED located next to the Fault Remind button lights green to indicate that there is sufficient voltage present in the fault remind circuit to light any fault LEDs that were lit due to a component failure. If this LED does not light when you press the Fault Remind button, it is likely that the capacitor powering the fault remind circuit has lost its charge. This can happen if the Fault Remind button is pressed for several minutes with fault LEDs lit or if power has been removed from the server for more than 15 minutes.

Fault LEDs are provided on the motherboard for DIMMs. The figure shows the location of the Fault Remind button and LED.
