Server network diagnostic system
First Claim
1. A method for providing server fault notifications comprisingreceiving a selection of a light-emitting diode (LED)-based directed servicing mechanism;
- receiving a network fault status request input;
receiving a selection of a diagnostic service notification filter parameter, the diagnostic service notification filter parameter selected from at least one of;
a hardware component-based diagnostic service notification filter parameter, a server node-based diagnostic service notification filter parameter, a server application-based diagnostic service notification filter parameter, and a server type-based diagnostic service notification filter parameter; and
illuminating one or more LEDs associated with one or more system components having one or more faults according to the selection of the LED-based directed servicing mechanism and network fault data, wherein the illuminating one or more LEDs associated with one or more system components having one or more faults according to the selection of the LED-based directed servicing mechanism and network fault data further comprises;
illuminating one or more LEDs in a sequence corresponding to a path associated with locating the one or more components having one or more faults;
displaying one or more diagnostic service notifications for one or more faults of the degraded server node.

Abstract
Methods and systems for implementing such methods for providing server diagnostic and system management information may include, but are not limited to: receiving a network fault status request input; illuminating one or more server node fault indicators for one or more degraded server nodes having one or more faults; receiving a server node fault status request input for a degraded server node having one or more faults; and displaying one or more diagnostic service notifications for one or more faults of the degraded server node. Display of diagnostic service notifications may allow for completion of various service operations associated with service notifications once information specific to a fault is presented. Such service operations may include placing a system in standby mode, transferring workloads to other systems, initiating a firmware update, placing the system in a mode that allows for physical maintenance, or ordering parts associated with one or more faults.
