Hardware View
The Hardware View is the default view that displays in the View panel the first time you open a
switch’s Element Manager. To return to this view from another view, click the Hardware tab. See
Figure 4 for an example of this view.
Figure 4 Hardware View
In the Hardware View, colored indicators reflect the status of actual LEDs on the switch FRUs. The
status bar displays a symbol to represent the most degraded status currently reported by any of the
switch FRUs. For example, for a port failure, indicated by a blinking red and yellow diamond on a
port, a yellow triangle displays on the status bar to indicate a degraded condition. However, if a
blinking red and yellow diamond displays over both power supplies, the status bar displays a red
and yellow diamond, which indicates a failure requiring immediate attention.
For an explanation of the different status symbols and the reasons they display in the Hardware
View or Port List View, see the table under ”Monitoring hardware operation” on page 47.
