Reference
LED or button
Description
1
System ID Button with Integrated LED
Maintenance = Blue
Toggles the integrated ID LED and the blue server board ID LED on and off. The System ID LED identifies the system for maintenance when installed in a rack of similar server systems. You can also remotely turn on and turn off the System ID LED using the IPMI chassis-identify command, which causes the LED to blink for 15 seconds.
A duplicate System ID LED is on the back of the appliance to the left of the video port.
2
NMI Button
Pressing the NMI button puts the appliance in a halt state and issues a non-maskable interrupt (NMI). This helps when performing diagnostics for a given issue where a memory download is necessary to determine the cause of the problem. To prevent an inadvertent system halt, the NMI button is located behind the Front Control Panel faceplate and is only accessible with the use of a small-tipped tool such as a pin or paper clip.
