Hi matthewstefy

If the power supply is having a solid amber light, it indicates something is wrong with the power supply. However, it is very unlikely both power supplies fails at the same time.

Therefore, I would suspect it is a false alarm? Is there any problem with the server? Have you try to reboot the server? Any error from the front LCD panel?

Please refer to the manual on page 25 for the description of the LCD error messages:-
