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.
