I have an Intel® Server System P4000CP Family. Today I've discovered that one of power supply has green light, second power supply has orange light. What does it mean?

The system Power Supply is in a degraded or in a failed state if any of the following is encountered:

  • Front Panel Status LED is blinking green.

  • Information regarding a failed or degraded Power Supply is written in the System Event Logs.

  • In the Active System Console, under Power Supply, the status indicates Failed.

  • The redundant PSU LED is amber (if checked physically at the back of the chassis).

Intel calls this color "amber". Not orange.

I should add that in my case, the amber LED only meant "there is no power in the cable".
