Overview
Blade Servers
Connectors
A console port gives a direct connection to a blade server to allow operating system installation and other management tasks to be done directly rather than remotely. The port uses the KVM dongle device included in the chassis accessory kit. See KVM Cable, on page 69 for more information.

LEDs
The LED indicators indicate whether the blade server is in active or standby mode, the status of the network link, the over all health of the blade server, and whether the server is set to give a flashing blue beaconing indication. See Interpreting LEDs, on page 25 for details.
The removable hard disks also have LEDs indicating hard disk access activity and hard disk health.
