Environment tab
You can view an I/O drawer's environmental properties in the I/O Drawer Properties: Environment dialog box. It displays a warning limit and a failure limit for the fan, voltage, and temperature sensors of the I/O drawer. When a sensor receives a reading that meets or exceeds a limit, the I/O drawer is placed into the appropriate state. For example, if the I/O drawer's temperature sensor has a warning limit of 25 degrees Centigrade, then the yellow status light on the I/O drawer will light when the temperature of the system drawer reaches 25 degrees Centigrade. See Status Lights/Indicators for information on status lights.

Drawer Indicators tab
You can view the settings of the I/O drawer's green or yellow attention indicator lights (Status Lights) in the drawer Indicators tab of the I/O Drawer Properties dialog box. The status lights are either lit ("true") or dimmed ("false").
The attention indicators show the state of the attention LEDs for the drawer's PBM. The lights assist an operator to locate a field replaceable unit (FRU) and indicate an error condition. The values of each indicator can be either true or false. True means the light is on; false means the light is off.
The intrusion table shows any intrusions made into the I/O drawer.
You can view the indicator properties of the I/O drawer by selecting the Drawer Indicators tab in the I/O Properties dialog box.
