Unit Identification
In an ultra-dense server deployment, properly identifying a server requiring service can be
difficult. The ProLiant DL320 and ProLiant DL360 servers include special LEDs that identify
servers requiring service.
The Compaq ProLiant DL320 and ProLiant DL360 server Unit Identification (UID) features on
both the front and rear of the server simplify server identification in deployments of ultra-dense
servers. The faceplate LED and switch
are easy to locate. The rear UID is an integrated LED and
switch.
