Powering the tape blade on and off
Power up
1. Install the tape blade, as described in the previous sections. The system health LED (item 1 in
Figure 15 on page 28) fl ashes red while the connection is established. (If it continues to fl ash red
for more than 2 minutes, there is a fault. Make sure that the partner server blade is powered off
and re-install the tape blade.)
2. When the tape blade is recognized, the system health LED (item 1 in Figure 15 on page 28)
illuminates solid green.
3. Power up the partner server blade. See the server blade documentation for more information. This
powers up the tape blade and the tape drive performs its hardware self-test.
