Controls and LEDs This section describes the controls and light-emitting diodes (LEDs) on your blade server. Note: The control panel door is shown in the closed (normal) position in this illustration. You must open the control panel door to access the power-control button. CD/diskette/USB select button Blade-error LED Information LED Location LED Activity LED Power-on LED CD Keyboard/ mouse/ video select button Power-control button CD/diskette/USB select button: Press this button to associate the CD-ROM drive, diskette drive, and USB port with this blade server. The LED on this button flashes while the request is being processed, then is steady when the ownership of the CD-ROM drive, diskette drive, and USB port has been transferred to this blade server. It can take approximately 20 seconds for the operating system in this blade server to recognize the CD-ROM drive, diskette drive, and USB port. The operating system in the blade server must provide USB support for the blade server to recognize and use the CD-ROM drive, diskette drive, and USB port. The BladeCenter unit uses USB for internal communication with these devices. If there is no response when you press the CD/diskette/USB select button, you can use the management-module Web interface to see whether local control has been disabled on the blade server. 18 BladeCenter HS40 Type 8839: Installation and User's Guide
